Diving Tackle is a good double skill.

I'd ignore it.

Yes, Guard is the best first skill for a Blocker, but maybe he wants to use the double.

Id take dodge or sidestep just to mix things up.

I made a block/dodge player. Hopefully this won't haunt me. I figure this player can be a good line player, if not killed soon.

blockers go guard/mb, or if you are feeling adventurous mb/guard
Absolutely nothing but bloat going any other way
having made the error however I would go guard next then stand firm. immovable av9 thick skull hinge for your line

Guard was the right answer. At least you can take it if he gets to 16 spps.

Yes but a Blodge blocker is not awful, he could be used to tie Big Guys, for example, and a Blodge Guard Stand Firm Blocker is very annoying.

Sorry I think a Blodge Blocker is awful. Blodge Guard isn't good. Blodge Guard SF is useful but bloaty.
