Those are interesting stats. Credit to BAL for seeing he can be a contributor in the passing game. Any ratings on him as a run blocker?
Hard to find run blocking stats. There is this: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2672530-bleacher-reports-midseason-nfl-all-pro-team
This is the third consecutive year in which Kyle Juszczyk has played a major role in the Baltimore Ravens backfield, but it looks as though the Harvard product has improved his game in 2016.
For the second year in a row, the 25-year-old is on pace to catch 40-plus passes for 300 or more yards, which would blow every other fullback in the league out of the water. Arguably more important, his blocking is on point.
Among 15 fullbacks who have played at least 75 snaps, Juszczyk ranks first at Pro Football Focus with a blocking grade of 3.0. With 2015 All-Pro Mike Tolbert's production dropping off this year and Denver Broncos rookie Andy Janovich probably still a year or two away from reaching his potential, the versatile Juszczyk has a chance to earn Pro Bowl and All-Pro accolades this season.
Still, as our voting results suggest, Falcons veteran Pro Bowler Patrick DiMarco might put up a fight.
