Play diagnosis has been on a defensive player card for as long as I can remember, it’s very much not a new rating.
The help file describes it as:
Play Diagnosis: A player’s ability to deduce the play call quickly after the snap.
Although I can’t immediately find reference to this, I also seem to recall that it relates to tackles for loss? Might be wrong on that though.
FWIW it’s a rating I rate highly, so in your example of a 100 RD 0 PD, it would suggest that player would make the defence more susceptible to play action, but increase the D’s run stuffing in obvious run situations (words chosen carefully)
