Blindside protector on Pittsburgh's Super Bowl XL line
Marvel Smith protected the blindside for the Steelers team that won Super Bowl XL, starting at left tackle as Pittsburgh beat Seattle for the 2005 title. A second-round pick out of Arizona State, 38th overall in 2000, he moved from right tackle to the left side in 2003 and anchored the line through the franchise's return to the top. He made the Pro Bowl after the 2004 season and started 108 of his 111 games.
The Madden trajectory mirrors his development. He opened as a 73 in the 2000 edition, dipped to 62 the next year, then climbed steadily as he took over the blindside, reaching an 82, then the high 80s, and topping out at 92 in the 2007 edition. A chronic back injury undid the end of his career. He appeared in just five games in 2008, his final season, though he collected a second ring when Pittsburgh won Super Bowl XLIII that same year.
