PFF doesn't grade the calls for the line, which Limmer seems to have been handling pretty well of late. Not that I've been nuking this, either, but it seemed like in his first couple games I noticed some corrections (Stafford calling them at times). Now it seems like he's got it, but we have an execution issue at LG and the interior as a whole has been iffy in pass pro.Limmer is certainly doing better than Bruss. But PFF has him at 44.3 in pass blocking which is far below average. He's around 65 in run blocking which is average.
Bruss is a 7.2 this year in pass protection...which is as you say shitting the bed.
The OL should have substantial improvement when the two actual starters get back.
So even though he's not great in pass pro I have to say overall he looks like a good rookie C. Which is to say he's run blocking well, calling the protections at a reasonable level I'd guess, and still learning with the pass pro. I can't imagine what the interior of this line would look like if they hadn't drafted him.
What I would like to see is what this line looks like with Avila replacing Bruss at LG. It is quite possible that we see them take a big step forward if we can get Avila back to solve that LG role.
