Out of 95 safeties PFF graded this year the KC safeties came in ranked...

Connor-11th
Cook- 57th
Reid- 79th

-Justin Reid makes $12 million while the other two are on cheap rookie deals.


Justin Reid is however the sweetest of sweeties and Spags/DB's would be lost without him. That by itself is worth half the money Reid makes. People who entertain the notion of cutting Reid to maybe sign a LT or something are just plain silly.

In fact I think Justin Reid would be fine at LT. Spags believes in him and that's all that matters. You don't cut sweeties like Justin Reid!

Reid is very handsome too! It doesn't get talked about enough. Mahomes has a Dad bod now and the DB's need something to look at.

I think it seems that way because we only ever resign the best home grown talent these days. While big FA signings can tend to be a bit more of a desperation move.

Bit different.

I'm a fan of Reid but ok this was funny.

I think it's more about PFF grades being laughably bad and non-credible.

We'll see how the team feels about Reid ... if it extends him, clearly the team has the opposite view as PFF.

PFF kills him because of a bad coverage grade and that's not entirely unfair. He's not a great coverage safety.

But that's just not how we use him.

Whether PFF is accurate or not isn't even the right question here - it's whether or not it even matters given how he's used for us. We use him as a box safety and almost hybrid LBer. He's used as a true 'old school' strong safety more than anything.

PFF doesn't seem inclined to account for that at all. He did the job we asked of him quite well this year and that's what's relevant.

Exactly. he put on weight before this past season just to be stronger in the box.

He also calls the plays for the DB's and Spags loves him.

PFF is spot on whenever their numbers back up the point I’m trying to make.

They’re garbage otherwise.

In all seriousness, I hate PFF's grades, but I love their analytical and premium stats. It's the only reason I have a membership. Yes I'd love to see exactly how each player does when they are lined up in certain positions on the defense, etc.

Plus I appreciate the analytical stats too that others don't often have.

But yes, **** their grading system.

It's like RAS.

The component parts of RAS are interesting. The 'score' that it creates is just absolutely asinine.

Funny watching a RB get a poor RAS for being short

RAS is just an index, it's not meant to be predictive of success. All it tells you is approximately how a player's measured size and athleticism compares to other players at their position. The scores lack context, sure, but that's the nature of what it is. I don't think it's fair to compare it to PFF, which ultimately boils down to some anonymous dipshit's subjective grading of game tape.

Nah, it’s trash all the time.
