An interesting way to rate players...

This site has taken a very in depth approach at ranking players... some interesting numbers pop out in a couple of categories...

QB .. Notice his value as a running QB.. I found that interesting in comparison with the league.

But also at Corner and OLB.. we have a fair share of players the rank pretty highly.. Kampman especially...

Interesting.. take a look.

Josh Sitton ranked #6 guard and Daryn Colledge as #21. (Steve Hutchinson as 14 and Alan Faneca as 70)

Hmm.

Good catch on the Faneca thing. Good site. I bookmarked it.

There are lies, then there are damn lies, and then there are statistics.

I would take my chances on an Alan Faneca in a New York second.

It also shows the extreme importance of an offensive line, linemen and scheme being in perfect synchronization.

It might be the toughest thing to get right in football. It is not ALWAYS the most important thing, but it is ALWAYS damn close to it.

The Steelers overcame the loss of Faneca and won a SuperBowl.

Barely. It didn't hurt that no one can tackle Ben. I would submit that were that not the case, they wouldn't have even sniffed a SuperBowl.

And then you look where Faneca wound up.

Enough said, there.

I have not paid any attention to Faneca this year, so I could easily be a bit off-base on him.

I do know that the Steelers missed him... a LOT.

Take a wild guess who the lowest rated special teams player in the league is.

I think grading out a individual offensive lineman on statistics is borderline asinine.. there is so much complexity to overall protection schemes, that sack numbers are easily skewed from one lineman on a particular line. Meaning player X can easily take the blame for player Y's mistake in a read.

As far as run blocking.. one boat anchor of a lineman can drag down the entire unit..

Cullen Jenkins getting negative points against the run. 9th 3-4 DE in the league.

Interesting ratings, but I don't know how Justin Smith is the best 3-4 DE by far.

Just an example, of course.

One thing that got my attention is Ryan Grants stats. Since a lot of you claim Grant goes down right after contact. This site says different.

If I am reading this right:

Ryan Grant has 412 yards after contact. That is good for 10th in the league.

Ryan Grant has 16 Missed Tackles. Either broken or avoided them. Good for 10th in the league also.

dfosterf (20m) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
