Quote:They are awful. The above is what you believe with no verifiable way to prove it either way. I remember both Fred Taylor and MJD having solid to great lines pretty much throughout their careers. Yeldon probably has some share of the blame. I was just surprised you pointed him out over the line.

Every line was solid? Hmmm..... How bout 2008, that line was terrible cause every starter on the interior went down. Now granted Fred was injured (and 32 old by then) but he still did 3.9 ypc. MJD did 4.2 ypc. 09,10 definitely were not good lines either. MJD did 4.4, and 4.5.

Now granted, the line is bad now too, but it isn't 08' bad. '09 and '10 got pushed back constantly in the center of the line and MJD did fine anyway. How many people wanted Brad Meester gone for years before he left?

 

Fred was the only back on team over 4 ypc for years before MJD.

 

Yeldon may not be a bust, but hes certainly not a game changer right now.
