To me, the scores are more important than the ranking compared to other safeties.
I look at it like this...a really smart kid in high school has a GPA of 4.2, which is really good. However, this kid is ranked 28th in his/her class because 27 other students have even higher than 4.2 GPA. Now is that kid considered bad because he/she is not a top 10? Or is the kid still incredibly smart even though he/she is not in the top 10?
Ultimately, I care more that the kid had a really good GPA, not where he/she ranked in his/her class.
They are rated, quite literally, as average.
Plus, your comparison doesn't hold water. Presumably, there are hundreds of kids in a class whereas there's only 2.5 safeties per team rated, or around 80. They are 50-60th percentile, aka very average
