I think I asked this in passing a few years ago, but I notice that we have moved beyond debating players to now banking on PFF's FA predictions regarding estimated contracts.
1. Are we putting too much stock into them, specifically at positions like OL where there is more than just sacks allowed and pressures.
2. I'm shocked that they don't have serious competition. I feel like a former GM (and draft guru) Mike Mayock could start a site as a figurehead with a bunch of retired scouts that want to make money scouting tape and reporting what they find. I don't know enough about PFF's crew, are they closer to the kids that eyeball the Madden ratings or are they actually credible? If I had a site that showed me PFF ratings with multiple reputable guys telling me why Quinton Spain is a "65" and what that means, or what their average is for a player....I may actually pay for that info. This could make a lot of money for someone.
