Or maybe roll a block with a penalty of -3 to -5, again depending on size..

One of the previous posts has a pretty good idea (IMO) for how to handle the shield with a sacrificial dodge...

I think I like the idea of succeeding by enough because it makes sense you'd try to move yourself in the way of the attack and keep the shield in the right spot if possible. And if you don't make it by enough for the shield, but you do make it by enough for the sacrificial dodge, you can still protect your friend, but you're taking a hit for them.
