The arrow is pointing way up. I expect him to see a lot of action on Sunday
I asked Matt Williamson of Scouts Inc. to assess Eldridge as a blocker and as a blocker of a rushing Williams.
“He is an excellent blocker — both in the run game and in protection. He would be an outstanding help defender on Williams in protection. He also should be very effective doubling Williams at the point and then getting up to the second level on a linebacker or Bernard Pollard. I have my doubts if he could consistently uproot Williams or Antonio Smith in the run game, but he will be asked to do some of that. But what is nice about him is that he is so mobile in comparison to linemen, which could be very effective in Indy’s zone stretch running game.”
