Even though they may have had a similar numerical "grade" assigned to them by PFF, it offers no criteria used for comparison. However, if you look at the Pass Block Efficiency breakdown just below, you'll notice that Karras gave up half or less as many sacks and pressures as Hopkins, and just over half as many hurries.
The pressure on Joe Burrow came right up the gut this year, Hopkins was flat out terrible.
That is good info. Thanks.
I am still in the camp that says get Tretter and let Karras play G. Comparisons from Hopkins aside, his best year is still when he played G, not C.
Or at least hold off cutting Hopkins until:
1) We absolutely need that $$ to sign someone
2) After the draft (Linderbaum, Green, Zion J fall to us)
3) We sign another G and he is locked in to C)
