Avon Blocksdale has a had few great moments in the NSFL. It's hard to narrow it down to just three, but let's try.
Being drafted by the Baltimore Hawks
Avon was a late arriver in the S2 draft, and no one really knew what to expect from him. He had not earned much TPE by the time the draft came around, though he showed flashes of being dedicated. @HENDRIX GM of the of the Hawks did not care about Avon's relative lack of experience and drafted him in the fourth round, with two other offensive linemen. The pick turned out to be a steal as Avon is one of the most dedicated offensive linemen in the league, and a staple for this Baltimore Hawks team.
Going to the Ultimus is S2
Before Avon the S2 draftees got to Baltimore the team was in dire straights. They had just finished as one of the worst teams in the league, and outside the Baltimore Locker Room no one expected them to do much of anything. However the Hawks were awesome. Avon was invaluable as the Hawks went a perfect 7-0 at home. Avon allowed only 3 sacks all year (and none in his two playoff games). This included a dominant performance on the road against Arizona where Avon had a ridiculous 10 pancake game without allowing any sacks against Jayce Tuck and the Arizona Outlaws.
Shutting Down Ricky Maddox
Everyone has heard of Ricky Maddox, and his switch to DE was supposed to mean there was a new top DE in town. But in week 2 Maddox failed to record a single stat (aside from penalties) and Avon was a machine, having 8 pancakes and 0 sacks allowed. Avon shut him down hard.
