As we navigate our way through the depths of the NFL offseason, let’s take a closer look at the Indianapolis Colts’ 2024 roster through the lens of PFF’s grading system.
Now, of course, PFF’s grades are far from the be-all-end-all when it comes to player evaluation. It is just one tool within the tool belt. However, generally speaking, when a player is performing really well, PFF’s grades reflect that, and the same can be said for when a player is performing not so well.
Below is a look at PFF’s grading system to provide some context behind the numbers:
90.0+: Elite
80-89.9: High quality
70-79.9: Good
60-69.9: Above average
50-59.9: Average
40-49.9: Below average
39.9 or less: Poor
Also, please note that any player with an asterisk by their grade is because they are a rookie and played at the college level last season.
Here is a look at each player on the defensive side of the ball for the Colts and what their PFF grade was last season, along with the number of snaps they played because sample size does matter.
