You’ve seen it mentioned here before and anyone that follows me on Twitter (@MathBomb), the RAS. It stands for Relative Athletic Score, and I use it to show either a present NFL player or a NFL draft prospect’s measurements in relation to their position group. The simple explanation for RAS is that it is a relative score that can show any measurement on a scale of 0-10 where 5.00 is always the average for that position group. We’ve already shown that the Detroit Lions have the smartest fan base, however, so you probably want more explanation than that, so here is some detail of how I developed the RAS and how it works.
