Data from PFF says SJ39 is the 9th worst in the league at Pass Blocking Efficiency, 2008-2010. This kind of messed with my mind because I always thought he was a good blocker. This leads to speculation about the Rams getting a FA back who can block and run, or if Lance Kendricks will be used as an H back and pick up the blocking duties.
What do you all think about this?
