I don't agree with that philosophy of grading the effectiveness of an OL.  The first goal of an OL is to block, or prevent the defender from making a play or disrupting the play.  Having played both OL and DL in my lifetime, I've always been taught that a stalemate is considered a win for the OL, as the DL failed to complete his mission while the OL succeeded at his.
