Probably a Jeff Ireland thing, but they just do. They were never going to draft a short DL like Cancey with his baby arms, or small pass rushers like Nolan Smith or Will Mcdonald, or a little RB like Achane. Look at the guys we drafted. Bresee is 6' 5" 300 lbs, Foskey is basically a clone of Marcus Davenport, Kendre Miller is an NFL RB stereotype at 5'11" and 215lbs. This is the way. Get used to it and you won't get disappointed.

Apparently not based on a lot of other teams' picks.

like who. honestly just curious


RAS is nothing new. It just quantifies good athletes based on their workout numbers. Teams have drafted on this for 40years, just without the quantifier.

Off the top of my head, Jordan Addison was drafted in the first round with a RAS of 5.9. Saints would never.
