Football Outsiders had San Diego at the bottom of the league in numerous run blocking categories. And TJ's career numbers are irrelevant here. The point is last season, he was almost entirely a product of his blockers. If his blocks broke down, he did nothing.

Holmes is a 1 time 1200 yard guy who is getting a signifigant downgrade at QB. Being MVP of the Super Bowl because he made 1 catch hardly qualifies him for All Star status. That being said if he wasnt an off the field risk they probably would have had to give up a 3rd rounder

Of course he aint no Brandon Marshall...
That's great. It's still about relative value and likelihood of success. The odds of a guy the Steelers pick at the end of the 5th round being as valuable as Holmes are extremely slim, regardless of your list of 44 productive 4th/5th rounders in 10 years. And yeah, great job with Marshall. The Jets' WR corps still blows the Dolphins' out of the goddamn water.
