Message: <blockquote data-quote="Don Barclay" data-source="post: 925637" data-attributes="member: 12032">I agree with this take, too; plus, one of the things that I've noticed for myself is that if the PFF number is way off from my impression, it can help me consider what aspects of that player's game I might not have considered -- which leads me to think/watch in more depth.  For instance, I am pretty dang confident in my ability to watch and understand OL play -- my own impressions tend to align with PFF grades, coaches' comments, etc....but I definitely don't have the same kind of handle on, say, DB play, so a grade that surprises me (for instance, I thought Douglas had a really strong game at CB) forces me to understand what aspects of his responsibilities I missed.Sure, another, similarly-derived metric could do the same -- but as others have mentioned...where is that other metric that's available to the public?</blockquote>
