Brendel has been pretty good in PP (#10). His run-blocking ratings (#29) are near the bottom of the league. From what I have seen, he just doesn't get started quickly enough to hit his target.
Banks has exceeded my expectations. He seems equally good in both areas. #19 overall. PFF
Hopefully Brend can continue to progress as it will save us cash in FA on a RT instead of an entire OL
