Best and Worst at the Half

[adam]

At the halfway point of the season, here are the top 5 and bottom 5 offensive and defensive players based on PFF Grades:

Offense Top 5 (100 snaps):

1. DJ Moore - 84.4
2. Khalil Herbert - 79.3
3. Teven Jenkins - 78.1
4. D'onta Foreman - 74.7
5. Justin Fields - 73.6

Offense Bottom 5 (100 snaps, worst first):

1. Lucas Patrick - 44.1
2. Cody Whitehair - 45.1
3. Robert Tonyan - 46.5
4. Ja'Tyre Carter - 49.0
5. Larry Borom - 49.5

Defense Top 5 (100 snaps):

1. Jaylon Johnson - 86.3
2. TJ Edwards - 81.0
3. Terell Smith - 70.6
4. Eddie Jackson - 67.1
5. Greg Stroman - 66.6

Defense Bottom 5 (100 snaps, worst first):

1. Dominique Robinson - 37.9
2. Yannick Ngakoue - 41.0
3. Elijah Hicks - 47.1
4. Tyrique Stevenson - 47.5
5. Zacch Pickens - 47.8

 

The two best players regardless of snap counts were Noah Sewell and Jaylon Johnson.

The two worst players regardless of snap counts were Josh Blackwell and a tie between Robinson and Homer. 

Any thoughts on these? I thought Billings and Kmet would be higher, neither made the top 5.

Are these pure snap counts or production related to a certain number of snap counts?

are those PFF ratings?

players with over 100 snaps, and it's their PFF overall grades

Curious. How do Justin’s numbers compare to other starting QBs?  I’m sure there are some outliers like Tua or even Cousins but you’d have to consider the “big picture”.  IE: Cousins’ rank of 86.7 (I think I looked it up correctly) doesn’t reflect his team is still below .500 despite his production.  
 

Im frankly surprised that Johnson’s ranking is as high as it is.  He hasn’t been spectacular … with the “eye test” anyhow.  
 

And in the ‘regardless of snap count’ category, I’d have to think Velus Jones is near 0.

Who is the defensive MVP and offensive MVP right now? Has to be DJ Moore because he is the only offensive players defenses account for. For defense either JJ or Edwards. Hopefully it ends up being Sweat by the end of the year.
