Or the lineman on the end of the line, if you prefer. The other linemen would be considered interior linemen, I suppose.
Think of a wideout who is "on the line"- one of the required seven guys on the line. Like others have said- the rules say for an offensive player to be on his line of scrimmage, he needs to comply with the postion requirements of a lineman.
