OL Team Rankings
From time to time, we get emails from members in regards to offensive lines and how they stack up. Offensive line rankings can be a difficult thing to find for the casual or even veteran fantasy owner. There are no pure stats that reflect the overall effectiveness of how a unit performs. This feature is a projection of how we believe these lines will perform based on their ability to protect the passer, block for their runners, and help to gain that tough yard on 3rd and/or 4th and 1. This projection gives you an idea of the boys up front that will be blocking for your fantasy RB's and protecting your QB.

Nice Job, Guys but i would
Nice Job, Guys but i would think you would have the Eagles and Dallas a little higher, and i don't know if i agree withe Minny being rated that high? JMO
I'm sure we'll get lots of
I'm sure we'll get lots of opinions on this and that's great. Where would you rank those three you mentioned?
Put the eagles where the
Put the eagles where the Vikes are, Put Big D where the eagles are, and drop the Vikes down to where Big D is at, But you did a heck of a nice Job listing all the lineman, Thank you!!
Tom, you should be proud of
Tom, you should be proud of that line you guys have. With Birk at center and Hutchinson at left guard, you have two of the best in the business working side by side. Throw in Bryant McKinnie at left tackle and that left side is in very good shape. I remember Artis Hicks from his days with the Eagles and think he's a solid guard on that right side. The guy to keep an eye out for is Ryan Cook. As you know, he's a young guy still learning but he's a big dude. If he plays well, you'll have a mighty fine line protecting Tavaras Jackson .
I like the Eagles line alot. They've spent so much time dropping into pass protection that i think their run blocking skills are under-rated. Could i have moved them up some? Sure. But then i'd hear about how much of a homer pick it was.
Ya i not worried about the
Ya i not worried about the left side, it is the ride side that scares me(alot)
