Parker can still be productive

"The key to gauging a running back's production is to see how he does on plays where he receives good blocking. The study showed that top-tier running backs will post a good blocking YPA of 6 or more yards, average running backs will tally between 5-6 yards and subpar backs will fall below the five-yard mark. ... Parker also graded out well in this category by gaining 301 yards on the 51 carries where the Steelers' blockers won all of their POA blocks. That equates to a 5.9 yards per attempt total, which is more than adequate and indicates he would be a quality pickup if the Washington Redskins decide to go down the veteran player path one more time."
