The goal is to create that wall of defenders that get in their own way. We have a rough time getting our FB/HB out on the LBs and holding their blocks, but our WRs hold quite well!
I'd just train blocking and Strength to 30. I had a WR with 30 Blocking and Strength from intense training it and he always held his blocks. Having high Agility and Speed to get to the blocks is the most important thing especially with downfield blocking.
