PFF sees Dotson, when he's on the field, as nearly equal to Fred Warner

[dhgold]

This PFF chart indicates that PFF views Dotson's play as nearly as good as All Pro Fred Warner.  Major caveat, Warner has played more than twice as many snaps as Dotson.

The chart is fromm an article about pending free agents who've raised their stock this season.

 

I was surprised by this bit of ostensible good news in what has mostly been a very disappointing season.

 

Do the All 22 film-watching gurus of this forum think Dotson has played this well?

[kkim0904]

He cannot make plays when the game is on the line..... I want Dorian William when we play explosive team or a team with mobile QB.

[Starr Almighty]

As I said in the other Dotson PFF thread. He probably paid someone at PFF so he could cash in on his next contract

[Bermuda Triangle]

Another steal by BBB!

PFF favors those on contract years

Who is Dotson and can he play LB? If so, let's bring him in to replace Dodson.

PFF also indicates that i cook nearly as good as Gordon Ramsey, play guitar nearly as good as Eddie Van Halen, and i am nearly as interesting as the Dos Equis guy.

I'm not as harsh on Dodson as others here are

But no, he is No Way in the same convo as Fred Warner.

[Blank Stare]

If you weren’t already convinced on Dodson, just watch that play where Hurts ran right by him like he was standing still. And he was the damn spy on the play. Dodson and Warner aren’t even in the same universe of player comparisons. They really need to get Dorian Williams going these last few games.

Of course they are - it is those type of players who will pay for their services.

Definitely more interesting than Dos Equis guy since he is imaginary.

[RiotAct]

you know, I’ve always really liked PFF.

Santana Dotson?

[CSBill]

Dodson's agent, @dhgold already working on that new contract. Well played.

Wow that's a name I haven't heard in 20 some years!  He was a good football player, I was a big fan of that Packers team that won the Super Bowl in 96

[C.Biscuit97]

Starting to think PFF might not always be reliable.  But maybe the 49ers want to save some money next year. 

[TheyCallMeAndy]

From what I understand listening to folks who watch and break down the All22 professionally, McD has done a good job (gasp!) minimizing his weakness and putting him in situations that suit his strengths. 
 

So yes, he has been very good this year.

This is very good news for the Commanders.

 

To have a WR who is also a great LB is quite a chess piece.

[BBFL]

Dodson reminds me of Brandon Spikes. Great in the run game and not much else. 
 

I wonder how many times teams try to keep him on the field by not substituting for passing downs…

[BADOLBILZ]

Something tells me he will fall short of Fred Warner's contract in free agency though.

I don't know how you grade it.   Warner is also surrounded by talented players in the front 7 so maybe... that hurts him? I dunno.

[KDIGGZ]

I think they meant to say "Pop Warner" as in he makes similar mistakes as the 9 year olds playing pee-wee (pursuit angles, shedding blockers, play recognition)

Yeah he's been fine. Looks like a backup LB to me, He's no where close to an all pro

[boco357]

Maybe since they have the same number of letters in their last name, without my glasses.

[bmur66]

Must be a case of the blind squirrel finding a nut.

[brianthomas]

If Dodson were truly in the same conversation as Fred Warner, you guys would've gotten his name right.

The way i see it, he hasn't been the worst player on defense, but I would've preferred Fred Warner.
Especially considering how we only had like 2 LB's going into this season? (I jest) But the way this roster is constructed, aside from Milano the position group is like an afterthought.

He doesn't ALWAYS make the play...

 

But when he does.....he prefers to do it 7 yards downfield.....

Fred Warner diagnoses that QB keeper and prevents that game winning TD run by Hurts
