ProFootball Focus Top/Bottom at every position, as of Week 13 2019

[TheKillerNacho]

A disclaimer: I do not own a PFF subscription but my friend does and sent me this list to post it. PFF is obviously flawed, and in some cases downright laughable, I do not necessarily share their opinions on the top/worst players. Still, this should be interesting. Keep in mind their new player grade scale lists players via a 1-100 format. Also keep in mind that players who do not have a certain Snap % are not included (not sure what exactly the minimum snap count is... I think its like 25%).

I will post these one more time after the regular season.

My baby boy, my MVP!

[Breesus mode]

My thoughts:

It does not feel like Breesus is playing that well, but what do I know?

Where is Armstead as far as tackles go?

Somebody, anybody, pleas take A.J Klein away from the Saints. Or maybe convince Dennis Allen he shouldn't be dropping into coverage.

So Cam Jordan is leading the league in sacks and has consistently been a great run defender his entire career, this year included. But he can't crack the Top 8?

I call bad beans.

He was classified as an Edge and he's 8th.

[Geezy]

No surprise Lamarcus Joyner being bottom 5. Worst move of the offseason for the Raiders.

Too damn low, IMO.

KERN DA GAWD!!! Lol at Jones as the best center in football and Henry not even a top 7 RB, never change PFF.

How are there 7 corners in the NFL worse than Xavier Rhodes?

A grade of 74 reflects Jones pretty well I think, basically just saying he's been a decent/good center.

He's #1 because (according to PFF), there aren't any very good, great or elite centers in football.

[RuskieTitan]

Brett Kern getting the recognition he deserves. Best punter in football, haters say otherwise.

[Manny/Patrick]

Jimmie award 3rd, man us 49er fans were ready to crucify him. Happy he’s playing so well, you know where Tartt is rated?

Been saying it since last year

[SkippyX]

Clowney is an interesting player.

He is very disruptive but never gets a bunch of sacks.

The Texans loved him (bad or no GM, limited GM ability coach, and newb owner screwed up the money on him (and then the trade))

It looks like he is having another 5 sack but very effective type year.

 

DJ Reader has been a beast all year.
