It just doesn't make any sense.

So anyway, the

Lindebaum is a outstanding run blocker who is a mediocre pass blocker, and that's absolutely the wrong way to be.

You want to be a great pass blocker who's a mediocre run blocker.

That has real value.

But the way Lindebaum is, you can't justify a top-of-the-market salary for that.

Even on PFS ledgers, he's right in the middle of 18th out of 32nd, I think, of the guys who played half the snaps in terms of his pass blocking score.

The people internal at PFF, by the way, would tell you, look at the separate blocking scores for the two things.

Just look at them separately and look where the guy is.

And don't use their combined weighting because it's really not much.

The other thing is that they don't weight penalties very well.

And Litterbaum is a guy who's somewhat penalty prone.

And very, very susceptible to large and long interior defensive linemen.

And so Dexter Lawrence gave him a lot of trouble when they played the Giants, for example.

But there's just lots of other guys, Vita Vea and others.

Let's see if you have Cam Hayward, who's in the division, which is not good, that have been a lot of trouble for him.

So, you know, as a pass blocker, he leaves a lot to be desired.

So outstanding run blocker from many ways.

I think he's only got one real weakness I'll point to, so let's get that out of the way first, and then I'll tell you what's good about his game, is that he doesn't stay on a combination block as long as I would like.

I like to see him, when you have a duo block going on, a double team going on,
