10 snap minimums as always:

BEST OFFENSE
Tucker Kraft - 89.7
Josh Jacobs - 86.4
Jordan Love - 77.7
Chris Brooks - 77.3
Jayden Reed - 72.1

WORST OFFENSE
Elgton Jenkins - 31.4 (penalties killed his grade I bet)
Ben Sims - 37.4
Rasheed Walker - 60.2
Josh Myers - 60.3
Sean Rhyan - 60.6

BEST DEFENSE
Xavier McKinney - 78.0
Arron Mosby - 73.9
Keisean Nixon - 73.5
Kenny Clark - 70.7
Eric Stokes - 69.7 (Stokes was awesome last night really, and arguably had his best game since pre-injuries from start to finish).

WORST DEFENSE
Eric Wilson - 43.8
Evan Williams - 47.6 (expected this, he had a couple bad reads and it cost us...but dude is still legit awesome)
Javon Bullard - 53.5
Rashan Gary - 58.7
Isaiah McDuffie - 59.2 (he got a 81.9 in Run Def. and 83.0 in tackling - his grading was hit due to coverage grade...)

Insane to think we have to get to near 60 which is not a bad grade how PFF works really for our worst 5

Thank you Tyni
Yeah. I suppose it’s a compliment if your worst 5 includes 60 graded players.
Vice Versa it’s probably an insult if any team had around a 60 grade for their “best” 5

Truthfully High 60s is a solid day at the office.

Speaking of that. Is there a grading scale to give us a better indicator of average to below average or above average etc?

I can pull what the average grade is for say guys with certain number of snaps. Little man isn’t down for a nap quite yet, will try and do something though.

I have always held the belief roughly speaking 60s is C grading out 70s B and 80s A because it is VERY HARD to hit 90 let alone have a season grade up there

Okay PFF is a bit finicky in how you can pull just overall gradings, each individualized grade is actually easier but here is some info as we sit right now on the season:

THESE ARE OVERALL GRADES

QB - of QBs that have add around 250 pass dropbacks only 12 QBs have an 80 or higher and only Joe Burrow (90.4) and Lamar (91.9) are above 90. Jordan Love is 17th at 74.3
RB - of RBs with 110 rushing attempts or more, only four have a 90.0 or higher - in order Derrick Henry, Bijan Robinson, Josh Jacobs and Kenneth Walker III. Only 8 RBs have 80.0 or higher of those qualifying. *Of note Emanuel Wilson didn't make cut as he only has 68 attempts but his grade is 82.5
TE - Of TEs with 23 targets or more...only Kittle is above an overall 90.0. Three others are over 80.0. Tucker is currently at a 65.1 overall.
WR - Of WRs with 23 targets or more...there are 3 (Nico Collins, AJ Brown, Tee Higgins) over 90.0 and there are 17 total of 80.0 or higher. Jayden is 73.6 (35th), Watson 71.3 (46th)
OL - Of those with 418 blocking snaps (pass or run)...5 have 90.0 or higher, 20 are 80.0 or higher. Zach Tom is 11th at 84.8 and is the only one above 70.0

DL - of those with 326 snaps or more. Only Cameron Heyward is above 90.0 and only 5 are above 80.0. Kenny is the only guy we have with that many snaps and he is not doing well at 52.5 overall.
ED - Of those with 352 snaps or more four guys (Watt, Garrett, Mack, Bosa) are above 90.0 with 13 total above 80.0. Rashan is the only guy we have with that many snaps and he is at 69.1.
LB - Of those with 418 snaps or more, only Fred Warner (90.0) hit that mark and only 4 are 80.0 or higher. Quay (58.1) and Isaiah (56.8). *Only 13 guys league wide that fit the parameters are at 70 or higher.
CB - Of those with 418 snaps or more, only four are over 80.0 and the top is Surtain at 83.2. Jaire only has 361 snaps so didn't make the parameters but his grade of 75.2 would have been good for 10th best if he had like one more game of snaps.
S - Of those with 417 snaps or more, only one is above 90.0 and that is Kerby Joseph with McKinney second at 89.6. Only 5 are 80.0 or higher. Evan only had 390 so barely missed, but his 75.5 would have been 12th with a few more snaps.
