650 - Talking RAS with Kent Lee Platte
If you’ve spent any amount of time following the NFL Draft, you’ve heard of Relative Athletic Score. We talk about it on Blue 58 all the time, and we’re not alone. But how did this commonly used metric come to be? We talk to the man behind it.
Kent Lee Platte explains Relative Athletic Score
Today we are happy to present a conversation with Kent Lee Platte, the creator of the Relative Athletic Score metric that’s become a crucial part of NFL Draft coverage for so many people. We use RAS regularly during our draft coverage and throughout the NFL season, and with so much of the amateur draft world looking to this key metric for insight, we thought it was worth a behind-the-scenes look at how it came to be.
Find out more about Relative Athletic Score and help Kent keep doing his great work at the Relative Athletic Score website.
