Offense
Dalton - Average (Almost Above Average)
AJ Green - High Quality - #4 WR
Lafell - Poor - #97 WR
Mixon - Above Average - #14 RB
Kroft - Average - #15 TE
Bodine - Poor - #32 Center
Boling - Average
Hopkins - Poor
Smith - Poor - #51 Tackle
Ogbuehi - Poor - #71 Tackle
Fisher - Poor - #66 Tackle
That's 6 guys rated Poor on Offense that have played A LOT this year. Mixon and Green are bright spots.
Defense
Jones - Poor - #91 CB
Kirkpatrick - Poor - Poor - #98 CB
Jackson - Above Average - #19 CB
Dennard - Average - #41 CB
Williams - Below Average
Iloka - Average - #39 Safety
Vigil - Poor - #83 LB - Our worst rated starter on the entire team.
Burfict - Above Average - #9 LB
Minter - Below Average
Billings - Poor - #105 DI
Atkins - Elite - #2 DI
Johnson - Average - #62 Edge
Dunlap - Above Average - #29 Edge
Lawson - Above Average - #30 Edge
Our defense looks better with only 4 starters rated Poor. Atkins is our only player having an Elite season.
Overall 10 guys who start are rated Poor. You're not going to win a ton of games with that.
Offense
Dalton - Average (Almost Above Average) [Given the state of the OL, I give Dalton the benefit of the doubt]
AJ Green - High Quality - #4 WR [Agreed]
Lafell - Poor - #97 WR [Agreed - Production way down this year]
Mixon - Above Average - #14 RB [Agreed]
Kroft - Average - #15 TE [Has played better than I expected he would, he's better than the eternally injured Eifert]
Bodine - Poor - #32 Center [#32 out of 32 - Yes, it wasn't my imagination. Agreed]
Boling - Average [I guess, maybe - certainly not above average]
Hopkins - Poor [Agreed]
Smith - Poor - #51 Tackle [Agreed]
Ogbuehi - Poor - #71 Tackle [Agreed]
Fisher - Poor - #66 Tackle [Agreed]
That's 6 guys rated Poor on Offense that have played A LOT this year. Mixon and Green are bright spots.
Defense
Jones - Poor - #91 CB [Disagree - I think he's better than #91]
Kirkpatrick - Poor - Poor - #98 CB [Agreed]
Jackson - Above Average - #19 CB [Agreed - except for the play where standing there watching the Steeler run past him, otherwise he pretty good]
Dennard - Average - #41 CB [Agreed]
Williams - Below Average [Agreed]
Iloka - Average - #39 Safety [Agreed]
Vigil - Poor - #83 LB - Our worst rated starter on the entire team. [Disagree on being the worst start on the entire team, but otherwise agree]
Burfict - Above Average - #9 LB [Agree - he'd be higher if he didn't get suspended each year]
Minter - Below Average [Agreed]
Billings - Poor - #105 DI [Don't know]

Johnson - Average - #62 Edge [Agreed]
