First off, I think it's pretty clear you can take PFF grades and throw them out the window. Actually, all of them are bad. You can take some stat that is clearly measurable, like QB hits, sacs, pressures, etc., and a player will have totally different numbers depending on which organization is counting them. They should clearly be close, but often are not, so throw that crap out. Since really one or two people know what the blocking assignments are, those people being Pollack, Callahan and Taylor, they (especially Pollack) will have to review the videos and make that determination. My eyes tell me Carman is there, playing well, so leave him in. That's what he was drafted for. I like Eatonfans idea of splitting reps, with the majority going to Carman. Keep them both fresh, Carman develops, and if he struggles you slide XFS in without making Carman feel like he was pulled.
