ProFootballFocus Top/Bottom at every position, as of Week 5 2021

[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%).

And this is why we don’t use PFF’s grading system

He needs time, plays for the worst team in the NFL right now and coach who will get fired.

He’s been good the last two weeks....

[tyler735]

Looks like Deonte Harris is the 2nd best WR in football lol

[Jlowe22]

Saints with the worst kicker in the league.  Only thing surprising is Rosas wasnt doown there too.

[RaidersAreOne]

So the Raiders have the worst to RT's, worst C and bottom 5 G? Sounds right. Thank god for Kolton Miller or else we'd be historically bad.

He played better but his grade from the first 3 weeks was so bad that he is still last. But if he continues to play better it won't last

[CP3MVP]

Nate Solder when he was with us was a good but never great tackle. But even I’m surprised at how trash he has been in New York

He played well against the Titans and got a 45.2 grade.
