    Benny Anderson

    I didn't know a lot about this guy so I started to ask around since this area is completely saturated with Ravens fans. The general consensus on him seems to be that he is a stud...as a run blocker. I was told that he is a nasty bull of a blocker in this aspect and we can expect to see some huge holes for WM to run through. However, he is a dud as a pass blocker. I'm told he lacks technique and, quite frankly, is a turnstile on the line.
    I heard this same info from several different Ravens fans. Has anyone heard or seen anything that contradicts this?

    That's where McNally comes into play.

      If it's true, McNally should be able to help with his pass blocking techniques. And given Anderson's size, we should wind up with a pretty good LG.
      Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

          McNally can walk on water, so he can teach Anderson how to passblock. His greatest feat is going to be making Trey Teague a decent left tackle. This will will require devine intervention.

            if it's technique and not instinct, size or speed, McNally can fix it.

            BTW how do players make it to the NFL with bad technique? In Rochester you can't make a high school team with bad technique.

                  I've heard the exact same thing, which makes the left side of our line a very dangerous to Losman.
                  You're right, I am a coward! I haven't any courage at all. I even scare myself.

                    Not really. That's what blocking TEs are for! And if you can get a blocking TE that can also catch (like this new Everett guy) then if the linemen don't need his help in a particular play, he can roll out to be an extra option for JP to throw to.
