In reality, they aren't very good and are created by part-time college students making low pay. PFF's real analysis is very good, they have a ton of incredible data. The grades aren't part of that, though.
The converse of that is people don't want assessment, they want to just use their opinions.
Generally, PFF's grades match the eye test for most positions.
I think DT and RB are positions that I feel they don't do a great job on.
But, like offensive lineman...a bad lineman may give up 1 or 2 sacks a game. So there might be 40 pass plays they don't give up a sack on. But, fans generally only see sacks and pressures. There's so much more nuance.
