    On ESPN insider Scouts Inc rated like 2500 players. I won't post the scouting reports but I will post each player's ratings.

    Before you get mad at the ratings make sure you look at the Grading Scale that they use.

    GRADING SCALE:
    100-90 Elite Player
    89-80 Outstanding Player
    79-75 Solid Starter
    74-70 Good Starter
    69-65 Adequate Starter
    64-60 Good Backup
    59-55 Adequate Backup
    54-50 Marginal Backup
    49-45 Below Average Backup Player/Core Special Teams Player
    20 Developmental Player

    I just realized that they didn't scout Bess which is ridiculous.

    No Sean Smith either... but I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and say that he would be a 20.

    Patrick Cobbs is way to low. IMO, if he isn't a good backup I don't know what is.

    EDIT: And LOL at Pennington not being a rated a solid starter.

    Sorry, but that scale is absolute BUNK.

    If simplify it and just rank the Phins roster top to bottom, it wouldn't look anything like that what-so-ever.

    Seriously? Jason Allen should be well behind the next 15 or so listed after him. No credibility at all IMO

    What's the difference between a good starter and a solid starter? They seem like the same term to me.

    Chad Pennington is only a good starter? What does somebody have to do to be considered a solid starter? Win 12 games? Throw for 4,000 yards?

    How did we win our division with only 5 solid starters? The rest of the NFL must suck.

    Joey Porter was graded based on his age and not his performance. He had 18.5 sacks last year and was on the shortlist for NFL Defensive player of the year. Very poor to call him a good starter.

    Al Johnson is on the list as a 20 (developmental player).

    a. He is not on our team
    b. He has already been cut from another team since leaving Miami (New England)
    c. He is not a developmental player

    I saw Joey Porter rated as a 73 and that immediately let me know that this is a piece of garbage.

    Jason Taylor is an adequate starter.... OK. And at least half of the team are developmental players. They have all of four players that rate even as well as 'solid starter'. Wow. I don't need to look at this any further.

    More of a comical read than anything really substantive. ESPN is a joke.
