Most of their “analysts” are college students. They pay between $12-$15 per hour. They are given a grading rubric and grade the plays in 0.5 increments. If they are more than 0.5 off, they call in a senior analyst who makes a final decision. They are given no training beforehand. If they don’t know what they are seeing, they are told to give a zero.

PFF grades are a small step above the casual fan, but only barely. If what he is saying is true, then there is no reason to put much stock into them if you know much about football.

Ive said several times PFF Analytics department is outstanding but their player grades from "film study" are crap.
