Rule 4: Top-End Athleticism
Last year, we looked at NFL.com’s Next Gen stats for the top running backs with a better athleticism score than production score.
Pacheco was a great barometer for this rule, given his athleticism score was 25 points higher and he’s gone on to be a standout at the next level. Tracy’s score difference was 27, which also foreshadowed his rise. Irving had a better production score by 10 points, but that doesn’t make his breakout any less impressive.
Rather than just look at one athleticism stat, we’ll look at two here: Next Gen and the Relative Athleticism Score (RAS). Developed by Kent Lee Platte, RAS takes a player’s NFL Combine measurables like height, weight, wingspan, hand size, athleticism and drill results to build a number from 0 to the highest score, 10.
