This took some time to put together, so hopefully a few of you will find this interesting.
The first number after the position indicates the number of players in the league who received enough snaps to qualify for a ranking followed by the players on our team who received rankings and the highest ranked player in the league at that position.
QB-40 Geno Smith 9th (T-9th) Highest Ranked: Joe Burrow, Bengals.
WR-128. JSN #16, DK Metcalf #37 (#32), Tyler Locket #62 (52), Jake Bobo #115 (114). Top Ranked: Nico Collins, Texans.
RB-59 Kenneth Walker #4 (5), Zach Charbonnet #23 (34). Top Ranked: Derrick Henry, Ravens.
TE-79 Noah Fant, #36 (39), AJ Bsarner #42 (T-45), Pharoah Brown, #68 (68). Top Ranked: George Kittle, Niners.
Center-41 Conner Williams #20 (17), Olu Oluwatimi #27, (NR) Top Ranked: Creed Humphrey, Chiefs.
OG-75 Laken Tomlinson #38 (42), Anthony Bradford #72 (70). Top Ranked: Chris Lindstrom, Falcons.
OT-80 Charles Cross #11 (11), Abe Lucas #68 (NR), Stone Forsythe #78 (73). Top Ranked: Jordan Mailata, Eagles.
CB-118 Devon Witherspoon #19 (T-24), Tariq Wollen #33 (?), Tre Brown #105 (#99) Josh Jobe #111 (#110). Top Ranked: Pat Surtain, Broncos.
Safety-92 Julian Love #6 (7), Coby Bryant #14 (T-17), Rayshawn Jenkins #72 (78). Top Ranked: Kirby Joseph, Lions.
LB-84 Tyrice Knight #25 (31), Ernest Jones #48 (41). Top Ranked: Zach Baun, Eagles.
DT-124 Leonard Williams #4 (4), Jarran Reed #25 (35), Byron Murphy #53 (64), Roy Robertson-Harris #80 (81). Top Ranked: Cameron Heyward, Steelers.
Edge-116 Boye Mafe T-#33 (T-30), Derrick Hall #62 (T-60). Top Ranked: Adian Hutchinson, Lions.
Players of interest. Offensive guard Sataoa Laumea received an overall grade of 38.8, an improvement over the 29.2 grade he had as of Week 13. Russell Wilson is the 11th ranked QB, a slight improvement over the #13 spot he was ranked at in Week 13.
I'm not claiming this to be some sort of holy grail and there are some things that do not meet the eye test. For example, despite the fact that Saquan Barkley, playing for the 11-2 Eagles, is on track to win the rushing title with over 2,000 yard yet he is just the 9th ranked running back below players like Bucky Irving and Tyler Allgeier (I had to correct the spelling on his last name 3 times). I also don't feel that they are putting enough weight on a team's W/L record for the quarterback position, that the success of eighth ranked Patrick Mahomes' 12-1 Chiefs should give him a little more stink vs. #1 Joe Burrow's 5-8 Bengals.
