Breaking down Brian Gutekunst’s Packers draft classes by RAS

Using average and weighted average RAS numbers for the last few years, we can see how the Packers’ athleticism preferences continue to dominate their draft strategy.

As any Green Bay Packers fan who follows the NFL Draft closely knows, the Packers value overall athleticism as much as or more than any other team in the NFL. The Packers routinely draft players with elite size and athleticism, and have done so in every draft since Brian Gutekunst took over as general manager in 2018.

One of the best tools for measuring a player’s overall athleticism in a simple number is Relative Athletic Score, or RAS, which is compiled and published by Kent Lee Platte (aka @MathBomb).
