Might be two offensive guards from ND - Nelson and Martin.
As a Colts fan, he's been a joy to watch

As JT pointed out, he's changed the culture of a line that had been a disaster since Tarik Glenn retired.

Nelson is a relentless disruptive force. A goon. A bully. A lunatic. And, perhaps my favorite Colt ever.

he reminds me of Larry Allen

but perhaps not as strong.

I saw Larry play when he was at Sonoma State; still one of the most impressive feats I've ever witnessed in person. Dude was blocking at least 2 guys at once on every play, and he would sometimes get 3 just by pushing the 2 guys he was blocking into the next level to wipe out a backer.
