It's sort of the dilemma of guitar; how do you organize something that has so many facets? The modes I linked are more on the advanced side. If you were to look more at the experienced stuff (which you are starting with the blues lessons), you'll also see a link for the scales and modes. The modes lessons I linked are getting in to advanced territory since these modes have a melodic purpose.

With that said, the overwhelming majority of stuff you'll ever need with blues and rock playing is found in the pentatonic. It's the anchor of blues/rock. However, knowing there is a roadmap helps even if there are more theories around when it's good to use other modes.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to structure based on each guitarists needs since each needs something different. For instance, somone playing folk may need less of the blues stuff, etc. So here, I think it is foundational work to build from and you get exposed the wider lens of playing the further you get along.
