I'm pretty sure I've seen people supply this info before, but here is a link if you care to read it: https://www.pff.com/grades
Fwiw, I'm not necessarily a huge fan of analytics. I think they most certainly have their place but I do believe their importance is overly inflated right now. Of course, the level of which changes from sport to sport.
I will however defend they are vastly superior to the typical stat lines we've seen for years. Statistics, without proper context, do not tell the whole story. This is where the immense value in things like PFF comes in. Although, I would also say that much of this value can be matched with a decent set of eyes and understanding of the game.
