But it's one measure (well, a couple of measures.) So is completion percentage. So is sack percentage. So is YPA. But we don't use just one to judge a QB.

I like PFF, I just think it's overused a bit for what it is right now.

It's a grade for each individual play summarized, and they provide a large amount of information to provide context. Nothing is perfect, but it is by far and away better than any metric or system available now, and when you have NFL personnel telling them they're on point over 95% of the time, I think that alone shows how much it's worth compared to any other stat.
