...and Bates has mostly graded out as a slightly above average safety other than last year. Is that really that much better than those 2? Idk.

Shake he was a top 10 safety (or close to it) his rookie season and he was a top 12 safety in the 2nd half of the 2019 season. Outside of a bad start to the 2019  season the guy has been excellent during his time here. Neither Williams or Iloka could claim that.

PFF grades
2018- 79.9
2019(2nd half)75.5
2020-90.1
