PFF 2025 QB Rankings (Projected) - such garbage

[Sperrydogg]

It feels like people haven’t gone and read the original PFF article, and the X poster is misreporting what was published. It’s available for free.

It’s not a traditional 1 through 32 ranking. They placed each quarterback into a specific category, ranked the quarterbacks within those categories, then ranked the categories based on potential for the entire group.

Smith was ranked near the bottom of the “Solid starters who have flashed high-end play” category. Darnold was at the top of the “Veterans capable of solid play, but could be quickly replaced” category.

If they had been placed in the same category, they unquestionably would’ve been ranked much closer.

In their category tiers, they put “Young players with a wide range of potential outcomes” between those two categories. So, you get weird rankings like Ward, Williams, and Penix being ranked above Darnold. I really can’t argue against ranking young guys, as a group, above easily replaceable vets. The potential is there with the young guys, once again as a category.

I would argue that it’s not entirely unreasonable to place these two players in these two different categories based on their respective bodies of work.

​

I thought it was a fair ranking. My guess is Darnold will soon be moving up a couple tiers

He's not 6 or 7 in the NFL. Not even close.

Hahaha heck no! I mean a 6 or 7 outa 10, like a good from far but far from good

Remember that these are the same experts who ranked Geno at 33rd out of 32 stating QB’s his first year as a starter. Look how that worked out.

Yeah, I can see that. He's about a 6.5

Good stats between the 20s and one playoff game? A bunch of red zone turnovers? Pouting on the sidelines?

Where does this guy rank then?

Tell us you didn't watch the Vikings' last two games without explicitly saying you didn't watch the Vikings' last two games.

Darnold very clearly reverted to his well-established level of suckitude for those two games.

did you see Patrick Mahomes' last game? yikes
