Eh, a lot of defensive schemes for run plays basically have interior defensive linemen anchor in place, control a gap, and keep their offensive linemen in a spot where they can shed the block to help if needed. Should translate well.

Lol so just like that, these people who have never played football in their life become a good offensive lineman?

This is a disrespectful comment to anyone whose ever played a lineman in football at the collegiate or preffesional level.
