ProFootballFocus Top 5/Bottom 5 at every position, as of Week 4

Recommended Posts

Friend with the subscription sent me the updated numbers so I'm sending them to you. 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'm honestly shocked VHIII isn't in the bottom five CBs. He's given up 19/28 passes for 260 yards and he's only gotten his hand on one ball. He's been awful this year.

Dotson has been a stud so far. Gerald McCoy has been unblockable at times. Lavonte David is playing the best football I've seen from him since the Schiano days. 

And I expect, if you extended these lists to the top six, Kendell Beckwith would be there at LB. Dude's been a monster.

VH3 is like 10th worst; Beckwith is 7th.

I am shocked, absolutely shocked, to not see a single Bengal offensive linemen in the bottom of 5 of any position.

But i know they're close...

Kind of invalidates the entire list to be honest

I'd hate to beat a dead horse here but I guess my question for PFF at this point would be....how the hell were they able to PROPERLY breakdown every single game AND analyze every player in the league by late Monday-early Tuesday morning? The calculations and grades I could see but they still need the data input. How did they manage to get all of this in such a short time? Do they have robots doing this stuff for them?

The Browns game is the reason.  Besides AJ Green, I don't think a single Bengals player made the top 5 or bottom 5, which is odd...
