Grading Scale:

This scale is how I grade each individual trait for each player. Often by listing the trait with a (x) after (x being the number/grade). I did not develop this scale myself, it was developed/utilized by the Scouting Academy.

7 – Elite – Displays unique ability within this trait. Wins consistently. Dominant vs. all competition

6 – Very Good – Displays rare ability within this trait. Has the ability to compete and win vs. the majority of NFL competition.

5 – Good – Displays above average ability within this trait. Has the ability to compete vs. majority of NFL competition. Should win most matchups vs. players with Solid or below tools.

4 – Solid – Displays average ability within this trait. Has the ability to compete vs. most NFL competition. Should win 50-60% of matchups against other Solid competition and be able to consistently win vs. lower competition.

3 – Adequate – Displays below average ability within this trait. Wins with effort. Has functional ability to compete vs. Adequate or below competition. Will struggle vs. Solid or better players.

2 – Marginal – Displays a minimal ability within the trait. Lacks functional ability and will struggle to compete down in and down out vs. NFL competition. Will lose most matchups vs. players with Adequate or better tools.

1 – Poor – Lacks ability to compete down in and down out vs. NFL competition regardless of effort or coaching. Will lose most matchups vs. players with Marginal or better tools.
