[QUOTE="PackersRS, post: 367231, member: 1429"] Funnily enough, when listening to the D list today, they had a short segment with opinions on Sherrod, and every opinion was that he was a great run blocker (Mississipi State was a primarily rushing team, and they rushed for a lot of yards last year) who needed to improve in his pass blocking. I'm hearing very different opinions on this kid. From the little I've seen in the highlights, he's very nimble-feeted, kinda like Clifton, he mirrors very well in the passing game, and he's very good at pulling/trapping and at the second level in the running game, but he sometimes plays too high in the running game in the first level. For what we do, the ZBS, he's very good at both run and pass blocking, because he's very good at the second level. What he struggles is with power blocking, which we don't ask much out of our OLs anyway. I fully expect him to struggle early on, but, much as with Bulaga, settle down after 5 or so games, and develop into a pro bowler. BTW, speaking of the D-List, they had an interesting question. Favre (8 ), Clifton (2) and Tauscher (0) combined for 10 pro bowls in their career. Do you think that Rodgers (1) Bulaga (0) and Sherrod (0) will have more? [/QUOTE]
