Those rankings for safeties really kind of jumped out at me!
Not counting the $33 million that the Hawks have given away as signing bonuses...

#1 Antoine Winfield. Base Salary $1,010,000.
#17 Julian Love. Base Salary $2,410,000.
#81 Jamal Adams. Base Salary $4,000,000
#87 Quandre Diggs. Base Salary $4,100,000

Something seems to be a bit upside down currently.
Call it, return on investment?

Thanks for doing this every week. Much appreciated !

Our interior line play has been surprisingly disappointing. I thought it would be a strength...

Obviously not. And they were the least injured group of the 5.

No problem!

And there's lots of other stuff in there, too, so if anyone ever wants to know something like how our OL is ranked in pass blocking, make a comment in the thread and I'll see what I can do.

Ha. I'd like to know just that. How is the info presented? Game to game, or over the season?

I'd like to know how the Hawk's offensive line has been ranked from 2020 to now.
If it's easy for you to do, otherwise skip it.

It's game-to-game. This one I posted was going into the current week.

A lot of the players received a boost from the Eagles game. For example, Julian Love went from being ranked the #45 safety going into Week 15 to #17 going into Week 16. But that could be a little bit of a misnomer depending on how many snaps he's seen. If he hasn't had a lot of snaps, then he can move up quite quickly, which is why we saw Jake Browning move from not being ranked at all to the #14 ranked QB.

I'll start working on the full QB rankings.

Obviously, they haven't taken the minimum number of snaps, but I don't know what that number is. However, by checking the 'ignore minimum snaps' box, had Lock achieved the minimum snaps, he'd be ranked between The Stache and Danny DeVito, ie #32-33. Flacco would be between Murray and Daniel Jones, ie #29-30.
