For some reason you're very defensive about this.

I agree that he is overrated, but this is a bit much

He was also the 83 best overall player in 2012

It's about as good as an aggie can muster.

It's the best grading system we've got. Do you disagree?
If by "we" you mean average Joe fan, I guess I would probably be ok with that. But it's like giving you 100 data points when 10 would be enough to get you to the same result.
But for real talent evaluaters, for every 10 metrics PFF establishes and uses on there site, 8 are worthless. Just white noise. Primarily b/c each play in a game has so many spurious variables associated with a given positions actual responsibilities on that play.
A DE sets his edge, but misses a tackle and allows a 3 yard gain inside. In the film room, he did his job. Per PFF's metrics and grading system, he didn't make the play, or didn't acieve what that metric is looking for. It's inherently flawed b/c the metrics can not account for certain aspects of scheme and responsibility.

I can't imagine starting a thread about a former auburn player on a Thursday at 3 pm. We're all up in his head.

fricker - tricking those NFL scouts - always thought he was a trickster - so, how long have you been an NFL scout?
What do you think an NFL scout is? A retired player who makes a lot less money than you think to watch football. They aren't these untouchable geniuses. And oftentimes, scouts focus on parts of a player's game, believing that the player can fix his weaknesses and improve the frequency of his good plays. Peterson hasn't done that.

You'll get a lot of bites with good bait.

Would you make this thread about him if he didn't go to LSU?

Not at all. I'm a big Jason Campbell fan.

Because NFL scouts have never been wrong and an NFL team has never handed out a bad contract

So instead of using every year he has been in the league, you use only 1. Why?

I hate cam because he's a prick, not because of where he went to school.

You've put a decent amount of work into this troll thread.
