"• It’s solely about what a player did on the field in 2012
• Players are grouped by positions so their play essentially earns them a portion of the positional salary pool
• It’s all about cap hits (these values are approximate)"
Here's some analytics at play...
Byrd, Spiller, and Levitre top the undervalued. Check out the write up on Spiller:
"2. C.J. Spiller, Running Back
They don’t get much more elusive than Spiller. He turned his 207 rushes into 1,244 yards largely because of his ability to turn a little into a lot. That’s why his 2012 Elusive Rating (https://www.profootballfocus.com/about/pff-signature-stats/#ElusiveRating)(94.6) was the best we’ve ever recorded. A threat every time he touched the ball and a snip at costing the Bills $3.5m of their cap.
2012 Cap Hit: $3.5m
2012 Performance Based Value: $9.9m
Value Differential: +$6.4m"
Coastal should enjoy that Mario is considered overvalued. Also lists Kelsay as overvalued... So Russ, do you plan to actually use analytics or not?
"1. Mario Williams, Defensive End
There have been plenty of excuses made for Williams; a new scheme and injuries chief among them. But the truth is he didn’t actually play all that badly, finishing the year 17th overall in our defensive end rankings. That was ahead of guys like Julius Peppers and Jared Allen. It’s just expectations were so high based on the hype and salary he had commanded, and unfortunately he was unable to live up to them.
2012 Cap Hit: $9.8m
2012 Performance Based Value: $3m
Value Differential: -$6.8m"
"2. Chris Kelsay*, Defensive End
This is a little tough on Kelsay who would miss seven games of the season (and a large part of another). While he was on the field he had some problems generating pressure, with only his outing against a horrible Cardinals set of tackles helping him pad his stats. He would have had a lot of trouble making his cap hit even if he played a full year.
2012 Cap Hit: $4.8m
2012 Performance Based Value: $925k
Value Differential: -$3.8m"
