PFF Publishes Data-Driven All‑PFF Franchise Teams From 2006–2025

The series uses a published, rule-based grading method that favors five best seasons and season normalization to highlight how peak stretches and longevity shape each franchise roster.

Overview

  • PFF began publishing franchise-by-franchise All‑PFF teams this week using its 2006–2025 play-by-play grading database to name 12 offensive and 12 defensive players for each team.
  • Selections count only a player’s five best seasons with a franchise, drop seasons with an overall grade below 60.0, include postseason, and normalize every season to a 16‑game equivalent to balance peak performance and durability.
  • Recent installments list specific rosters such as Brock Purdy leading the 49ers offense and the SeahawksLegion of Boom anchoring Seattle’s defense while noting modern-era players like Devon Witherspoon and Leonard Williams have forced their way onto teams.
  • The rule set produces predictable tradeoffs that explain notable omissions and contested spots, for example Walter Jones missing out on Seattle for lack of PFF‑era snaps and Aqib Talib narrowly beating Carlton Davis III in Tampa Bay on peak grading.
  • The series is ongoing and centered on 2006–2025 data, so it will keep highlighting how franchise-era peaks shape rosters and likely prompt further debate as PFF releases more team articles.
