We've kicked this around...
Does anyone here have a subscription to the pff metrics so we can see his numbers for his Guard play?
Last year at OG, Eich's overall PFF grade was 75.7, his pass block grade was 73.1 and his run block grade was 68.5, all solidly above average. In pass pro, he gave up no sacks, 1 hit and 2 hurries in 106 pass pro snaps.
For the first time, Eich played some at RG and there results were . . . good. It was only 2 games -- Weeks 11 and 12 against LV and NYJ -- but in those two games he had only 1 blown block in 135 snaps, which was a pass play that resulted in a hurry, but not a sack or QB hit. Over the two games he was in on 72 pass blocking snaps and 63 run blocking snaps and he had no blown blocks in the run game. In those two games, on runs up the middle, inside right and off-tackle right the Dolphins had 14 carries for 57 yards (5.4 ypc). There were no backside pulls to the left.
Thinking he probably faced Quinnen Williams in the Jets game I started to get excited, but it looks like Williams didn't line up at LDT in that game. In that game, the Jets LDTs were mostly Solomon Thomas and Quinton Jefferson. In the Raiders game, the LDTs were Adam Butler, John Jenkins and Bilal Nichols. Not stars, but competent players.
