Traylor, who didn’t miss a game and started 12 overall, was a handful for opposing centers and a perfect complement in the 3-4 despite no prior experience in that system. He was a willing mentor to his younger linemates, and even led by example with 33 tackes (23 solo). He centered a defensive line that was sixth-best in the league against the run. He’s been a member of the last two teams to win back-to-back championships (also the 1998-99 Broncos).
