To me, there is a clear major disconnect between what the players think and what the national media thinks about Goff.
That’s my point here.
I know.
My point to you is that it's a stretch to claim we know what players as a group think. That's a bit arbitrary. I don't think there's any hard and fast or real distinction here. We have no idea what percentage of players voted or who they tended to be.
I don;t think there's any real mystery here. Ranking him 8-12, if you take rankings seriously (I tend to prefer tiers over rankings), sounds about right. I don't think there's anything here to scrutinize.
But that's just me.
The point here is that these are opinions. As we know, opinions can and will vary greatly. I think it is kind of interesting that players collectively think more highly of Goff than the media and pundits and personally I would put more stock into what the players think. But that is just my opinion.
Once Goff trends away from those bad games he had towards the end of the season last season, I believe the overall "ranking" of him will improve.
