Just as a brief reminder, the positional rankings are derived from the Pro Football Focusrankings and are adjusted so that the best player in the league at his position gets 100 positional value points and the worst at his position gets zero points (for more details,read yesterday's post). Overall, those rankings result in the following five tiers or quintiles:
Positional RankingDescription
100-81 Blue-Chip Cowboys Players
80-61 NFL starter quality at position
60-41 Average to slightly below average player
40-21 Underperformer
20-0 Red Flag
As you review the figures and charts in the rest of this post, keep in mind that the numbers give a directional indication of how a player performed over the first six games, but shouldn't be seen as a definitive statement of a player's quality. While I'm confident that a player marked in blue had a better start to the season than a player marked in yellow, there is probably less of a difference between players with a value of, say, 75 and 85 than the numbers and the color code would seem to indicate.
Cowboys vs. Eagles
It's always tricky comparing rosters, especially when teams play different systems, like a 3-4 or 4-3. So in trying to make the two teams at least superficially comparable, I've decided to use a 29-man roster for each team.
