Fix the rating system, gentlemen. Amari Cooper's -1.7 is ridiculous.

bobrulz • 8 years ago

He's had a lot of drops.

Matt • 8 years ago

Look at how many times he's being targeted per game, drops will happen it's just part of the game. No way he should have a negative grade, too much stock is put into stats instead of just pure football for PFF.

bobrulz • 8 years ago

This is such a common misconception. PFF is a SCOUTING website, not a STATS website. Their entire mantra is pure football. They grade play-by-play. Can it be flawed? Yes it can, there's no denying that, but they do what scouts around the league always do, which is evaluate players.

They gave Aaron Rodgers a negative grade after he threw 4 td's in a game. There is an issue with any system that does that.

bobrulz • 8 years ago

I'm not going to argue that there aren't flaws, but I would trust them over "random person 53" any day of the week.

popsiclesticks • 8 years ago

To me it just seems like as long as you ignore QBs, the rankings generally make sense. So that's what I do with them.

EDIT: Of course, I do seem to remember thinking that they have some problems with WRs as well. I love their rankings for defensive players and OL, though.

Alfredo Cota • 8 years ago

He's got like most YAC and forced missed tackles in the whole league, c'mon...

crosseyedlemon • 8 years ago

Maybe the PFF staff have given Amari the Austin Cooper Mini grade by mistake.

I thought Shaq Thompson would be good, Gettlemen is one of the best drafters in the NFL.

Gary Helms • 8 years ago

Please send this to Adam Schein. I know he is paid to be loud and entertaining, but please be humble enough say you were wrong about the Panthers draft and free agency acquisitions, ie Michael Oher.

Jt • 8 years ago

Remember their draft reaches article.....lol. Never doubt Gettelman's picks

Jimmy Guy • 8 years ago

Shaq Thompson had a good game last week, but it's going on week 4 now. he seems like he "punches with his arms" instead of "putting his butt into it", kinda like watching pop warner tacklers

koda57 • 8 years ago

Shaq Thompson is definitely showing flashes of greatness but I gotta see more of him to be sure. We'll know before playoff time when true 1st rounders aren't rookies any more.

RSR1DRIVER • 8 years ago

Trae Waynes made the best of his first opportunity. If he develops under Zimmer like Xavier Rhodes is, Pass defense is going to be near the top.

Tommy • 8 years ago

no doubt Shaq Thompson is gonna be a beast. But gotta give more love to Demarious Randall from GB, the kid played safety and is now lining up outside vs NFL WR's and more than holding his own. watch the tape.

I was part of the "We need a linebacker/defensive tackle!" group that was raging against Ted on draft week.

whew... good thing I'm not the one drafting.

Samuel Mazzini • 8 years ago

Way to early for this shit,this article gets a -100

crosseyedlemon • 8 years ago

Why is it too early for the PFF staff to provide their observations of the rookies play to this point? I'm sure there are many readers who are interested in these initial assessments, so maybe it's your comment that deserves the -100 grade.

Matt • 8 years ago

they can asses all they want, but thus far these ratings are meaningless lol. I don't think any NFL player logs on here to check their rating at the end of a game. It's for fans but after just three games, these ratings mean nothing.

Matt • 8 years ago

I agree lol
