Respectfully, I just spat out my lunch.* ASJ can't block! When I've watched him he's been a dominating blocker. The only blocker I've seen better at the position is Fiedorowicz who is great at getting you 5-10 yards but is too slow for much else.
* I didn't really but am just surprised at this evaluation and to be fair to you, I've seen it elsewhere. Thing is, the only place I don't see it is on the playing field. Maybe it's just me.
Let me rephrase. With Ebron and Amaro blocking is very much an after thought and they get off blocks as quickly as possible, or never engage to begin with. ASJ to me seems to get lost in his blocks, lacking a certain level of understanding where the play is going. I dont have concerns about his willingness as much as the other two, but when I watch games, he seems to be moving in different directions than the play should be moving.
That may just be me. When watching their running game, I couldnt help but think thank Bishop would have been better served with a guy like Fied or Niklas moreso.
I am far more the amateur in all this than you guys, just my obvervation.
