Following the Indianapolis Colts' performance in Week 1 of the preseason against the Baltimore Ravens, which players received the highest grades from Pro Football Focus, and which received the lowest?
Now, before we dive into all that, I do want to mention that while PFF's grading system is certainly helpful at quantifying a player's performance, it is not the be-all and end-all when it comes to evaluations. It is one tool out of many that are out there and should be treated as such.
For some context around these grades, below is the grading scale.
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
Colts' five highest graded players vs. Ravens
CB Alex Johnson (94.9): Johnson got the start at cornerback, and on the two targets that came his way, he got his hands on the ball, forcing a pass breakup and coming away with an interception.
LB Joe Bachie (94.7): Bachie made all three of his tackle attempts and two stops in the run game. Giving his overall grade a big boost was the red zone interception Bachie came away with.
DE Isaiah Land (86.2): PFF credited Land with one pressure and thought he held up well in the run game, which included forcing two run stops.
IOL Josh Sills (86.2): Sills played 42 snaps and didn't allow a single pressure. He also had a run-blocking grade of 81.3.
TE Tyler Warren (78.4): Warren was as advertised. He caught all three of his targets for 40 yards, was physical, and proved to be a difficult matchup over the middle of the field.
Colts' three lowest graded players vs. Ravens
DE Durrell Nchami (35.0): Nchami generated two pressures on just 10 pass rush snaps, which is very good. But on 24 run defense snaps, he had just one assisted tackle and received a grade of 28.6.
DT Eric Johnson (38.1): Like Nchami, bringing Johnson's overall grade down was his run defense. Johnson saw a lot of snaps early when Ravens' running back Keaton Mitchell was generating some big runs.
CB Johnathan Edwards (39.0): A small sample size for Edwards, but he allowed one reception on one target--although it was for only nine yards--and missed a tackle, both of which contributed to his lower overall grade.
