Busy with dirty work in the trenches, offensive linemen don’t get the glory enjoyed by "skilled" players. In fact, if their number gets called at all, that usually means they’ve screwed up. They don’t get drafted to fantasy teams, and the casual NFL fan can probably name no more than a few big men up front.

We here at The Buzzer want to give NFL offensive linemen a voice and some semblance of glory. So we’ve asked several of the league’s top offensive linemen to let us get to know them better. We asked the questions, they gave us the answers. Each week at The Buzzer, we’ll help you "Get To Know An Offensive Lineman."

FOXSports.com: Who’s the smelliest guy in your locker room? And please describe the odor.

David Bakhtiari: Josh Sitton. He pretty much always smells like rotten eggs.

FS: What’s the best or most unique locker room prank you’ve witnessed?

DB: Telling one of the rookies to grab their playbook because Coach [Mike] McCarthy wants to speak to them.

FS: Most memorable block of your NFL career?

DB: There isn’t a specific block, but I would say the first Vikings game from last year [is memorable]. Coach gave me the stat sheet and it showed that I had shut out Jared Allen. He said, "This is something that you’ll want to keep, this is very special, Rook." Jared is one of the best pass rushers in the game, so that’s really memorable.

FS: When’s the last time you touched the football in an actual game? What did you do with it?

DB: San Francisco in Week 1 last year. I treated it like a bar of soap. I was the first person to recognize Eddie [Lacy’s] only fumble and I couldn’t even grab it. It squeaked right out of my hands.

FS: Who’s got the biggest appetite among the members of your team’s O-line? What does (or doesn’t) he eat?

DB: Of course it’s Josh Sitton. He loves ice cream and desserts.

FS: Do you have a nickname? (If yes, what is it, and if there’s a story behind it please provide).

DB: People call me Big Perm, Big Germ and Big Worm. I don’t know, Josh [Sitton] came up with it when I had my ponytail. It wasn’t as long as it now, so he said it looked like a worm. That’s when he came up with all the nicknames.

FS: What would you like to do after your playing career?

DB: Lose weight. Get down to 240 (pounds), become a businessman and start making some deals.

FS: What was the highlight of your offseason?

DB: Working out and being in L.A. Just getting into my routine down there and enjoying my down time. Seeing my family and all that.

FS: Tell us something about life as an O-lineman that the average fan probably doesn’t know.

DB: Keeping on weight for me isn’t as easy as it seems. It’s more of a job. I have to stuff my face beyond comfort just to keep weight and gain weight. I try to gain the best weight that I can, so it’s not like I’m just stuffing myself with chips and other junk. It’s a job in and of itself.

LIGHTNING ROUND

FS: Would you rather play in mud or snow?

DB: Snow.

FS: Greatest fear?

DB: Spiders.

FS: Favorite non-sports website?

DB: YouTube.

FS: Favorite sport to watch other than football?

DB: Soccer and tennis.

FS: How many times have you willingly performed the truffle shuffle?

DB: Copious amounts.
