Pro Football Focus released their top 101 players for the 2022 season and it’s another example showing how the Jets have a good foundation to build on. Three Jets players made the list, including two in the top 30.
These rankings were made solely on the play of 2022. No past or future play was taken into account.
Here are PFF’s criteria for the rankings:
• This list is based solely on play in 2022. Past or future play is not accounted for. This isn’t about class or talent; it’s about performance throughout the 2022 NFL season.
• This list is created with an “all positions are created equal” mantra. So, you won’t see 32 quarterbacks heading the list, even though that is the game’s most valuable position. Instead, we take a look at how guys played relative to what is expected from their position.
• Unlike PFF’s awards, the 101 factors in the postseason, so some players who won PFF awards may find themselves jumped in the 101 by rivals who had a playoff run worthy of a change in ranking.
Let’s dive into the three players on the list.
