Wide receiver blocking...do they ignore it?

Yeah...but I'm talking STARTER material as a blocking WR.   Odds are, if Tim Jones came in the defense knew he wasn't getting the ball so they could probably view him as a blocker only.  Hopefully Tim won't even be on the squad next season. (I think Cook is a better 4th/5th receiver option).

One of the things I always loved about Hines Ward was how much he embraced hitting a DB as hard as he could whenever he could.   It can be quite helpful.

It's a pass first league. I want my guys to run clean routes, get open, and snag passes first and foremost. If they get in the way on a run play, that's enough. I don't need no pancakes on the sideline when the interior line are doing their best impressions of lawn chairs.
