PFF Rookie of the Year rankings (Week 8)

1. Marshon Lattimore, CB, New Orleans Saints
PFF Grade: 94.5
PFF Elite Stat: Lattimore has surrendered a mere 0.56 yards per coverage snap so far this season, the seventh-lowest rate among cornerbacks. Marshon Lattimore – a rookie let me remind you – is currently our third-highest graded player eight weeks into the season. Not our third-highest graded rookie, nor our third-highest graded corner, our third-highest graded player in the entire league. Lattimore is yet to surrender more than 38 receiving yards in a game – and it took Detroit throwing at him nine times to eek out those 38 yards – and opposing quarterbacks have just a 33.3 passer rating when targeting him in coverage, the second-lowest rating among qualified corners.

The melt when we drafted this kid was mind blowing to me. I'm not saying I have never had an eat crow moment, but I could not figure out why he was getting so much heat.

Ram is just outside of the top ten now.

This is about my only gripe my with the draft. I have no idea why we passed on him.

Wasn't he the exact player we wanted to draft, but no one thought he would fall to us? I don't remember much melt at all

If anything I think everyone was baffled he fell to us.

The injury history + this team's track record gave understandable pause to some. Many of those excited about the pick were at least aware of the risk.

unfortunately kareem hunt or deshaun watson will most likely win it because of being on offense but man I'm fricking stoked to have Lat on this team

They give out separate O and D ROY, Lat should have the D award on lock. Honestly if he keeps it up and we go on a serious run with a few more splash plays he may contend for DPOY.

Is he? I know it started well but I don't see him in the top 10 or under honorable mentions (not that these lists are gospel, but that's a lot of rookies in front of him).

Edit: what Brett said.

Hooker is on IR out for the year. Won't be on these list.

Damn I missed that. Guess that's why I haven't been hearing anything about him lately.

Tore his acl 2 weeks ago. He was very highly graded

Yup Mystery filled me in.
And since people were praising him so much and ready to get rid of Vaccaro I looked at their stats. Both have 7 games played.
Hooker (409 snaps)
3 ints
4 passes defensed
15 solo tackles with 6 assists
Vaccaro (427 snaps)
3 ints
7 passes defensed
1 fumble recovery for a td
0.5 sack
28 solo tackles with 9 assists
