Around SBN: The Ten Worst Swings Of The 2011 Season

Dolphins Starters: Rank According to ProFootballFocus

I was a tad bored today, so I started looking up Dolphins players and their rankings on Pro Football Focus.  I was pleasantly surprised by a few, and a little disheartened by some others.  Here is a sample:

Henne - T 20th

R. Brown -8th   R. Williams - 2nd

L. Polite - 1st

D. Bess - T 10th   G. Camarillo - 36th     T. Ginn - 64th

A. Fasano 4th

J. Long - 18th, saddened by that.

Sean Smith - 9th!     V. Davis - T 33rd

R. Starks - 3rd     K. Langford - 5th     P. Merling - T 10th   Studly DEs!!!!!

 

Head over to check out the others if you're interested.  http://www.profootballfocus.com/home.php?tab=home

if i had to guess

it’s 2nd as a backup?? where as ronnie is in the starter rankings?

both of which seem about right..

The Future is now, stop the bandwagon and lets get the Henne train rollin, as we all hope that the 14th dwarf is the real prince charming.

Agreed,

but thats not how it’s done, AP is ranked 9th, I’m not sure how they come to their conclusions, but looking through the results I can’t say I agree with them.

I’m a big Bess fan, he’s not #10.

he hasnt done anything outstanding yet!

What idiots were ranking these guys?

Fasano hasn’t done anything this year. How is Ricky better than Ronnie. Smith has potential, but has nothing that would project him as a 9 yet.

Jake Long is top three

Even Hub Arkush thinks Jake is the best left tackle in the league… and Arkush is the most straight forward guy ever when it comes to football talk.

Yeah, he's certainly not killing it right now

Which is why we need to draft one. Luckily for us, there’s a shitload of nose tackle prospects in the coming draft.

You can filter based on number

of snaps taken. All players, 25% or more of snaps, 50% or more of snaps, 75% or more of snaps. So I guess you could filter by 50% or 75% to get only starters.

So I filtered by all players. So when Ricky is in for a snap, he is the #2 RB in the league. They take a lot more into account than yds and tds. I really don’t understand the formula, but it was interesting nontheless.

Dolphins and Gators baby!

They take in all sorts of things

Pass protection, rushing, receiving, and others

Ted Ginn is the man.
