quote:

1. Marshon Lattimore, CB, New Orleans Saints

PFF Grade: 93.9

PFF Elite Stat: Lattimore has surrendered 0.63 yards per coverage snap this season (yards given up divided by snaps spent in coverage), the fifth best rate among corners.

No surprise here, Lattimore continues to lead this race for PFF’s Rookie of the Year award as we close out Week 10. The rookie sensation received his first game grade since Week 1 that was below 80.0, but at 75.8 it was by no means a disastrous performance and if that’s him on an off-day, QBs all around the league have my sympathy when they must face New Orleans. Opposing quarterbacks have targeted Lattimore in coverage 35 times this season and have earned just a 42.3 passer rating on those 35 throws.


quote:

4. Alvin Kamara, RB, New Orleans Saints

PFF Grade: 84.0

PFF Elite Stat: Kamara ranks third among RBs with an 81.1 elusive rating.

Kamara has been on a tear since the Saints returned from their Week 5 bye with a little more space in their backfield than they had going into said bye week. Kamara has finished three of his last five games with a grade north of 85.0, including his highest-grade-to-date, 88.3, in Week 10 against the Bills; his 88.2 overall grade during this five-week stretch ranks second among running backs. For the season he now ranks fourth among RBs in terms of overall grade and he joins Hunt as being the only two running backs who rank within the top-10 in both run grade and receiving grade. Can he continue this tear and challenge the top-3? Stay tuned.

Damn. Kamara with a big jump (Kareem Hunt is still the favorite for OROY, but Kamara has easily looked better the last few weeks), & Ramczyk almost in the top 10. Notice that Ramczyk is the only O-Lineman in the top 20.

Lattimore & Ramczyk are locks for the all-rookie team. Kamara & Marcus Williams are going to have a very good chance if they keep this play up. There are just so many good rookie RB's & Safeties (2017 had to be one of the best Safety drafts ever...completely loaded).

Lattimore #1, Kamara #4, Ramczyk #12, & Marcus Williams #15. Beast of a draft class. CSP said that they had a 1st round grade on our first 4 draft picks. Looks like they were right.

I don't understand how Lattimore gets a 75 with 1 pass completed against him for 9 yards.

I didnt love the M Williams or the Kamara pick. I was convinced we had to get a starting pass rusher with one of those picks to win this season. I was wrong.

Has the same team ever had the OROY and DROY?

To go even further down the rabbit hole, if we on a serious run...could we have DPOY of the year as well with Jordan?
