As a frame of reference, that would mean every team in the NFL has 5 safetys that played better than Harper and Jenkins.

And every team has 4 or 5 players that play better than these guys too
Lofton (104th MLB),
Vilma (100th OLB),
Ellis (118th DT),
Hawthorne (102nd OLB),
Greer (118th CB),
Robinson (193rd CB)

Sedrick Eillis and Patrick Robinson should not have C's. They should have an F-

Yep, it's pretty amazing how bad these guys played. Dallas had 7 inside line backers grade out better than Lofton did. And we all thought Lofton was pretty good.

Worse that what? or who? Harper? Except for that one play, you'd almost be able to say that Malcolm Jenkins didn't even play this year. :broccoli:

what the hell is this article about? am I missing something, like, reality?

Value based on 2013 performance? By this logic, I should be President of the world and #1 porn actor of all time in 2013.

It is quite a perplexing title.

I guess he's grading their 2013 value based on past performances and how he projects they'll perform next year in this same system under the same coaches.

Its a complicated process that involves the difficult maneuver of typing while simultaneously pulling crap out of one's own ass.

It is very difficult to grade everyone on the team adequately. I don't have access to the individual rankings(thanks again to those members that post that type of info here). These columnists have much more insider info that I don't get. Triplett has access to enough info to make an intelligent call.
In short His grades were decent based on his grading scale. I'll give him a B-minus. :razz:

Here's another thought........Drew is not a mobile QB like Rodgers. If our entire line were to tank a C minus or if our receivers couldn't get open would Drew still get an A? I doubt it!
It's all a team game and what your team mates do reflects on you. Like it or not. That includes coaching.
Remember these grades are based on how these individuals would rate compared to the other players in the league if they were being evaluated by another team to target. They are not based on this seasons play. The comments at the bottom of the column were educational and informative.
