Do you have access to the rankings, say, game 4 or 6? Would be nice to compare them to this ranking. I think a number of players would look better the last few games. Phillips is a good example.

Some look plausible and then you get to Howard and just laugh. It goes to show how flawed the analysis is. Kind of like when they show the passer rating against a DB and it’s super high but they leave out the fact that it was on 3 catches for 17 yards.

The Davis number is laughable too. The D got a major boost when he returned. He eats space which is what he’s asked to do.

This is much more telling than the initial scores. Thanks for posting. Only 4 on defense not going up. According to them only Hunt is not descending on O Line though Tua seems to have more time to pass?
 
I’m not a big believer in PFF grades for a lot of reasons, but I don’t take issue with most of these ranks. One question: How are there 24 receivers worse than Albert Wilson?
 
Those O-line rankings are tough to look at.

I also would not put much stock at all into those CB rankings.

Our scheme asks far more of our Corners than most others.

Most surprised about how low Raekwon Davis is ranked.

He is being asked to eat up a bunch of double teams so not sure I see eye to eye here with PFF.

I have been a huge detractor of these rankings but this round seems to be on par with what my eyes tell me.

Average offensive player has moved up 2 spots in the rankings the past two weeks, average defensive player has moved up 5 spots.

If I'm reading this right, a number of players are grading better than they appear. Let's take Waddle. Now ranked 16th which is up 16, meaning he WAS ranked 32. But that's not the end of it. To get to 16 - a rise of 16, he has to grade 10th (that number is fabricated).
Or take Roberts. To move up 13 to 54, he has to be playing about 40th to get to the 54th on average.
Wish we had a more accurate idea of how those numbers are derived. I hope Brum posts updates in a couple more weeks.
DISCLAIMER: Like most here, some of those numbers are so far from what I see as reasonable, I'm not too concerned
 
I am thankful for my eyeballs. They tell me more.

I appreciate that people put in the work to compile their analysis. Just hard to agree with sometimes. The stats remove the human element.

I haven't agree with the Jaelen Phillips assessment, for quite awhile, not just because of his recent sack totals.
 
Thank you. Again a lot I agree with, that matches what I am seeing.

I don't think Wilkins is getting enough credit for the year he is having. Holland at numerous 5 is so impressive for a rookie.

Questions for the fan base. Has Davis played better than that at NT? Obviously, I disagree with the Phillips ranking.
