Clarence Hill on Twitter: Per PFF, "Only two elite players. All RBs ranked as below average

[Bleu Star]

PFF is such a waste of time. Bunch of paste-eating dorks who've never been on a date.

 

[Gameover]

I love how Hill left out the 9 players in green which represent very good and good players.

 

[Section446]

About right.

Patriots have 3 per PFF. Ravens 1. Seattle 4. Packers 4. Colts 1. Broncos 2. They just don't overuse the term elite, which I think is actually a good move by them.

Some of you guys are blowing this out of proportion. If you compare with the rest of the league, GB has 4, IND has 1 (not Luck, but Davis), NE has 3, Giants have 1, Eagles have 2 (one of which is Mathis, who likely will be moved). I don't know what criteria they used, but it's not like half the league has 5 elite players or so

http://i.imgur.com/4Hhmuyy.png --- not arguing, but there's the breakdown for the 'elites' at the rb position. Leveon bell is prob not elite because his prior production doesn't justify it, but based on 2014, he was absolutely one of the best. (edit: THE best)

And I guess how do you define 'elite'? I throw my cutoff at top 3. Romo has certainly been consistently very good over the years, but has he ever had a knock your socks off year like manning in '13, rodgers in '12, brees in '11 or brady in '07, where he was just absolutely better than everybody at the position?

Do you get paid to shill for PFF or are you just blinded by all their numbers?
