Some interesting ones in here. Terrible blocking by Tyreek and Patrick Paul. Lots of guys on the team that can't block. Also Achane and Jonnu Smith. This is how the team is built. Poor OL complemented with fast players that can't block. Bad yards after catch from Tyreek and Waddle. We have been figured out. Linebackers still cannot cover.

▪ Best pass blockers (minimum 50 pass blocking snaps): 1). Terron Armstead, who allowed just 16 pressures and three sacks in 501 pass-blocking snaps. 2). Kendall Lamm, who yielded 12 pressures and no sacks in 336 snaps as a pass blocker. 3). Center Aaron Brewer, who permitted just two sacks and 14 pressures in 714 pass blocking snaps.
▪ Worst pass blockers (minimum 50 pass-blocking snaps): 1). Guard Isaiah Wynn, who yielded a sack and five pressures in 70 pass-blocking snaps. 2). Tackle Jackson Carman, who gave up one sack and three pressures in 50 pass-blocking snaps. 3). Guard Liam Eichenberg, who relinquished two sacks and 29 pressures in 644. All three of those players will be free agents next week. Couple notes: Among non-offensive linemen, running back De’Von Achane and tight end Julian Hill were rated Miami’s worst pass protectors. Achane permitted a sack and six pressures in 19 pass-blocking snaps. Hill allowed a sack and five pressures in 50 pass blocking snaps. Robert Jones yielded the most sacks (five), but PFF rated him 12th of 19 Dolphins who pass blocked. Jones will be a free agent next week.
▪ Best run blockers (minimum 50 run blocks): 1). Armstead. 2). Brewer. 3). Receiver Jaylen Waddle.
▪ Worst run blockers (minimum 50 run blocks): 1). Receiver Tyreek Hill (he blocked on 316 runs and PFF gave him dismal grades). 2). Receiver Malik Washington (139 run-blocking plays). 3). Tight end Jonnu Smith (120). Note: Rookie tackle Patrick Paul graded out as Miami’s worst run-blocking offensive lineman and by a large margin.
▪ Best yards after catch average (minimum 15 receptions): 1) Achane at 8.5. 2) Since-released running back Raheem Mostert at 7.5. 3). Jonnu Smith at 5.9.
▪ Worst yards after catch average (minimum 15 receptions): 1) Hill at 3.5. 2) Waddle at 4.1.
▪ Best passer rating against, among defensive backs (minimum 15 targets): 1). Kader Kohou, at 76.0; 2). Fuller, at 92.8. 3). Jalen Ramsey, at 93.5.
▪ Worst passer rating against, among backs (minimum 15 targets): 1). Impending free agent safety Jordan Poyer (130.1 passer rating on 24 for 33 targets for 294 yards). 2) Cornerback Cam Smith 122.4 (16 for 19 for 174 yards). 3). Impending free agent safety Jevon Holland (111.3, on 24 for 39 for 302).
▪ Best passer rating against, among linebackers (minimum 10 targets): 1) Tyrel Dodson, at 53.7 (13 for 17 completed but for just 112 yards and three interceptions). 2). Anthony Walker, at 102.2.
▪ Worst passer rating against, among linebackers (minimum 10 targets): 1). Released linebacker David Long Jr. (125.7 and 22 completions in 23 targets). 2). Jordyn Brooks, at 115.9, including allowing five touchdown passes relinquished.
▪ Best against the run, among all defenders (minimum 100 snaps defending the run): 1). Impending free agent defensive lineman Calais Campbell. 2). Ramsey. 3). Brooks. 4). Fuller. 5). Holland.
▪ Worst against the run, among all defenders (minimum 100 snaps): 1). Long. 2). Impending free agent nose tackle Benito Jones. 3). Kohou. 4). Outside linebacker Chop Robinson and 5). cornerback Storm Duck.

A lot to unpack here.

A few things stand out on the positive side, including Kohou's pass coverage rating. I think missed tackles were his issue, and sometimes still getting handsy.

Surprised Paul was ranked so badly as a run blocker.

Hill and Waddle rarely break tackles. I agree with that, but that's more about Miami needing to complement speed with physical players.

That's probably the takeaway. No surprise, Miami has to get more physical virtually everywhere.
 
We knew Paul was a project so I'm willing to give him this coming season but if he doesn’t make it then he's just another wasted 2nd round pick.
To be fair to our Tackles, they had to do their job and watch out for the stupid Guards next to them as well. Put 2 good Guards next to them and they'll magically get much better. Think Austin Jackson playing next to Hunt vs next to Eich.

I doubt Paul was trying to block two guys at the same time. We'll just have to wait and see with him

I was thinking the same thing. throwing Paul out there with historically bad guards, he can hardly be evaluated
 
Paul is a tall guy with long legs right? Most likely means high center of gravity. It will probably always be a struggle for him to be a good run blocker.

If he turns into a 'plus' pass blocker though, he is still getting the job done. Richmond Webb was a pretty poor run blocker too.

Really? Why does Armstead grade out super high (borderline best in NFL when he plays and often is playing hurt), playing with the same sucky guards next to him. Excuses excuses. I know Tua is the best QB in the NFL too, it is the fault of everyone else around him when he struggles
 
hill and waddle run backwards. suprised it is even that high.

Because Paul is a rookie, full stop.
 
lol @ Cam Smith.

Not bothered by Achane’s pass blocking grade - he’s small and shouldn’t be doing much of that anyway.

Is there anything Julian Hill did well? To go w his 469 penalties, “Hill allowed a sack and five pressures in 50 pass blocking snaps.” he was a terrible pass blocker too.

You’re comparing a Rookie to a 13yr pro bowl player. A top 5 left tackle when on the field but subject to availability.
