Methodology

Individual defender ratings are deferred for v1 — participation data from public nflverse sources is insufficient to produce reliable per-player numbers without PFF grades (not in scope). Better to ship nothing than ship bad defensive numbers.

28 and Three — Independent fan project. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the New England Patriots, the NFL, or any of its teams.
