I can probably find 20 other examples of where PFF grades are completely out of line with the way NFL teams value players in free agency.
You can not provide me with ONE example of an NFL team claiming they use PFF grading systems to judge players. NFL teams probably use the raw data and stats that PFF collects, but not their grading system.
To be fair Peters is really old which is why he is still out there.
In the end I think the eye ball test is the best way to grade players cause sometimes PFF can be perplexing to say the least on
their grades. They used to be much better as Truck alludes to back before NBC and Collinsworth jumped in. This still doesn't
mean either Warford or Peters wouldn't be major upgrades for us.
