Quote:You made some very good points until here ^^.

 

He's been very close to both Monroe and Barnes.  Maybe even closer to Salaam.  But Pearson?  Sheesh... As questionable as he's been, he's been better than that.  The only worse than Pearson we had was "Turnstile Todd" Fordham.

 

Pearson had chicken legs and no drive.  As soon as he remotely started to resemble a LT, he got injured.
 

 

Pearson was easily a better pass protector than Joekel even early on. It's just that he absolutely stunk as a run blocker. Joekel is far and away a better run blocker than Mike.


 

As for Fordham, are you sure he played LT???? I don't recall him playing on that side especially for a full season.


 

Salaam...aka the man who loved to hold...was the opposite. He was worse than Joekel in pass protection but even better than him as a run blocker. Salaam was a run blocking beast who simply blew chunks in pass protection.


 

Barnes was decent.... as in about the same as Joekel as a run blocker and about the same as Pearson as a pass blocker.


 

Monroe was flat out better in pass protection and as a run blocker than all of the above. The only guy to compare to Monroe was Ben Coleman when he replaced Boselli due to injury, but he had far too many penalties.
