Bakh is a rookie, who weighs under 300 lbs.

My sentiments align with what wpr and Dakota have said: he was thrown into a bad position and has done well being a 4th round rookie lineman who wasn't expected to contribute this year, but he has had some letdowns (e.g. the Cinccinnatti game in which he gave up the batted pass to end the game). That said, I believe he has the potential to become a solid tackle and has played well at times this year.

I guess the real question is, at the moment is he better than Newhouse?

His run blocking hasnt improved but I think theres enough there to expect a possible breakout season next year. From what ive read about him many people thought he came out a year too early. Hes got good feet already he just needs some strength. The most important thing to me though is if he wasnt on the team I doubt we would still have a shot at the playoffs this year with newhouse starting.

He will have to win the position next year. We've got guys coming back from injury.

Fortunately, we haven't needed him there. Thanks to Bakhtiari.

Football Outsiders has some interesting O-line analysis:

http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/ol 

Packers are tied for 5th in run blocking, and tied for 25th in pass blocking.

We're #1 in Power running, 5th in not getting stuffed (though at least part of that is having a beast running back who gets lots of yards after contact), 11th in 2nd level blocking and 9th in open field.

We run better up between the tackles, ranking 2nd in up the middle and 3rd in off right tackle (with more than 4.5 yds/attempt adjusted line yards). L tackle drops to just above 4 yds, and around the ends are around 3.5 yds.

MM might want to look at the stats, because we run around the left end more than twice as often as the right tackle (RT ranked last in runs in each direction).
