Message: <blockquote data-quote="Greg C." data-source="post: 219922" data-attributes="member: 195">I read that article when it came out last week and also found it interesting. His justifications for the rankings make sense, although I found it curious that he ranked the positions entirely on pass blocking. There was not a single mention of run blocking in the entire article. I don't disagree with that, necessarily. I guess it just goes to show that pass blocking is where the money is because the stakes are generally higher on passing plays. I don't think he underrated the center position. Maybe centers have to use their brain a little more than the other guys, but let's not kid ourselves, at the NFL level, athletic ability is at a premium. There are a lot of guys who are smart enough to play center, but very few with the physical gifts to play left tackle, or any of the other OL positions, for that matter.</blockquote>
