Reader Posted April 3, 2020 Posted April 3, 2020 Pro football reference has created an algorithm that defines how valuable a player is over their career. For those of you who thought that Dan Darragh was the least valuable player ever on the Bill's congrats! https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/buf/career-av.htm
Rico Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) Thanks! Let's see... This one's brutal #30. John "Turnstile' Fina #38. Will Wolford This one's highly accurate: #57 Nate Clements #143 Lil Antoine Edited April 4, 2020 by Rico

I guess Fina gets points for sticking around a while. Amazing how far ahead Bruce is from everyone else. I like seeing some other old time favorites high on the list: 26 Henry Jones 1991 2000 144 SS 67 29 Charles Romes 1977 1986 151 RCB 66 Can't say I appreciate this one much, but don't want to turn this into another Tyrod thread. I loved Jerry Butler. 73 Tyrod Taylor 2015 2017 44 QB 40 74 Jerry Butler 1979 1986 88 WR 39 How is Butch a zero w/ ten TDs? 1244 Butch Rolle 1986 1991 92 TE 19 minutes ago, RyanC883 said: was Maybin not eligible? He's in there.....tied with Corey Moore (and Dave Moore and Rickey Moore, whoever they are) with 2 points. Hell of a return for the #11 pick. 748 Aaron Maybin Edited April 4, 2020 by KD in CA 1
GunnerBill Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Joe Webb's package coming in at a solid #1290. Underrated. 2 1
Rico Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Steve Tasker gets a value of 7 points, tied with Bennie Anderson, Tiny Tim Anderson, Jerry Crafts, Robert Royal, and Chris Watson. 1

Utah John Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Well it's certainly the offseason, that's for sure, if we're worried about the relative rankings of some of these guys.
Mango Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Remember when Chris Kelsey was the favorite whipping boy around here? The guy made it to the top 40. I want Spyder Harrison do read this list for me on an NFL films special.

MJS Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 For all those who keep the fight alive even today, Rob Johnson is in the 200's and Doug Flutie is at 89. Have at it. 1
cage Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) Well our current stars have much to aspire to as they head into their 3rd-4th years together 123 Mack Yoho 1960 1963 56 LDE 28 ... 141 Matt Milano 2017 2019 44 OLB 24 146 Tremaine Edmunds 2018 2019 31 ILB 23 147 Micah Hyde 2017 2019 47 CB 23 166 Jordan Poyer 2017 2019 47 CB 21 186 Dion Dawkins 2017 2019 48 OG 19 203 Josh Allen 2018 2019 28 QB 17 This Yoho guy was well before my time, but he must have been something!! This tells me that if each of these guys improve enough to vault themselves past Mack Yoho, they could just win the Super Bowl?!?! Forget all the "Trust the Process", "Playoff Caliber" and "Championship Caliber" stuff peppered throughout in the locker room. How about #AtLeastBeAYOHO Edited April 4, 2020 by cage 2
cage Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) Also, would like to see some type of explanation of this algorithm. Yikes when I see this: 397 Steve Tasker 1986 1997 160 WR 7 Apparently on par with Stefan Charles, Johnny Green, Dee Hardison, Izell Reese, Larry Watkins and Chris Watson #WhoRThey I'm stopping at this point...

Rock'em Sock'em Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 How is Reggie Bush in the middle of this list? 12 carries for -3 yards.
cage Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 And Joe Webb is a 0?? He won the most memorable non-playoff game (certainly top 5) we may have ever had
