    PFF: Top 25 Offensive Linemen of 2017

    Some love for Whitworth and Saffold.

    And by the way, we faced 3 of their 9 top-rated OL last Sunday.

    15. Rodger Saffold, G, Los Angeles Rams – 84.2 overall grade
    PFF Elite Stat: Saffold has given up just one sack all season, across 445 snaps in pass protection.

    After a tough start to the season, Rodger Saffold has been a force for the Rams in their run this season. On the year, he has given up just one sack, and 18 total pressures, but his most dominant aspect of play has been run blocking. Saffold’s brute strength is impressive and his ability to make blocks on the move has led to some highlight reel plays in opening space for Todd Gurley to exploit for big gains.

    16. Andrew Whitworth, T, Los Angeles Rams – 83.6 overall grade
    PFF Elite Stat: Whitworth has allowed just 21 pressures this year, across 443 pass blocking snaps.

    He may be 36-years old, but Andrew Whitworth remains one of the best tackles in the game, and has done so outside of the protection of the Cincinnati offensive scheme which has been one of the easier to block within for the past several seasons. Whitworth has represented a monstrous upgrade over what the Rams have had at left tackle over the past few years. Whitworth has surrendered 21 total pressures on the season, and has positive grades in every facet of play PFF measures.
