ProFootballFocus Top/Bottom at every position, final 2021 rankings

[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%).

3 of the 5 starting Dolphins offensive linemen in the bottom (Austin Jackson somehow managed to avoid the bottom 6, with a 49.9)? Shocked, I am not.

Deonte Harris? 4th highest rated WR... 
36 catches, 570 yards and 4 TDs..

[SBLIII]

[MontanaBronco]

Tommy even won AFC special teams player of the month at one point this year. It got him a notch above his brother😂

[///mcompact]

Greg Zurlein doesn't make the bottom-5?   You can throw this list right out.

[Blackstar12]

Zach Pascal decent run blocker but that’s all he brings to the table. 🤷‍♂️ 

[biggie.]

Lol, Burrow, Herbert AND KIRK FREAKING COUSINS rated higher than Josh Allen. This would cause Vans to short circuit.
