I get frustrated with his inconsistency as well, but as KOC put it, he makes a 'dent' in fronts. He's strong and physical. He can move. Outside of Darrisaw (at times) there's no Vikings O-linemen with better strength and striking power. We all know about his pass protect issues, but you can see that when he's on, he's very good actually. He's just not consistent unfortunately. The bad plays dings the hell out of his PFF scores.

If hes such a thumper...and Bradbury ranks so high in run blocking,  why the hell can we not get a yard between the tackles when we need to?  Our middle runs get shut down more than they succed in short yardage situations it seems.  Somebody is the weak link.


I hear you, but I'd also say there aren't but a handful of teams in the NFL that can get a yard or two consistently when they need it. Interior D-lines are mostly talented around the league (outside of Minnesota, lol). And he's just one guy. Bradbury is a joke in short yardage. Brandel is more a mauler than a thumper and he's not getting low leverage with his height.
