At least according to PFF, if you put any stock into it...

John Miller 2019: 58.6
John Miller 2020: 61.1

XSF 2019: 60.1
XSF 2020: 59.1

They're both basically bottom tier starters at best, but ideally a backup on a good team. I don't have all the advanced stats or whatnot, but I think I vaguely remember hearing how one was better in pass and one was better in run, but they basically are equal overall. Not sure which was which, though.

I think remembering XSF as better than he is might be a bit how we were all excited about Hopkins two years ago when he was the best guy on a truly terrible OL. Just looked good in comparison to all the bad guys but in reality just continues to be meh-at-best.
