    I am getting the feeling the QBs drop even further and Bills find someone that wants on. They trade out of the first round and get another second round pick.

     

    I'd love to see Beane move our first for a 2022 2nd and a first next year

    They are videos of teachers talking directly about themselves.........it IS a direct source.

     

     

    You can cry Tik-Tok all you want, it doesn't change a thing.

     

     

    That is the same with multiple posts by myself and others here that you dislike and falsely discount.

     

    They are quotes from people, and often with links to other sources. Your sad excuse that you do not like a particular site, because you don't "approve" of it

    is all too laughable

     

     

     

    A primary source would be the video on Tik-Tok itself.

     

    A secondary source is Libs of Tik Tok tweeting said video.

     

    Sad a teacher does not understand basic sourcing.

    Primary source documents should always be you first choice, and people admitting themselves that they are doing it is a primary source. Explain a better source than someone admitting what they are doing?

     

    A Twitter account tweeting videos it found on Tik-Tok is not a primary source.

    I can’t answer your question because I haven’t gone through every single RB to play in the NFL in modern times. I do know from casual glancing that the bust rate is higher if you expand the parameters. 

     

    You would be looking at each college RB who had two years of 1,400+ or 1 year of 1,800+ and a 40 time of 4.4 or lower, not every single RB to play in the NFL in modern times.

     

    You need a group to compare your group to for your theory to stick.

    I told you. My criteria is High RAS scores (8+), 2 years of 1,400+ or 1 year 1,800+, and a 40 time of 4.40 or lower and play in a acceptable conference. I’ve listed the players already that reached that

     

    I understand your criteria

     

    The question is - What players with two years of 1,400+ or 1 year of 1,800+ and a 40 time of 4.4 or lower who play in an acceptable conference has a RAS score that does not fit your criteria?

     

    The data from that question would isolate the parameter (RAS SCORE) you love so much to compare the two groups. 

     

    It is my theory that college RBs with incredible production contribute at the next level at a comparable rate regardless of their RAS score.

    Sanders, AP, JT, Edgerrin, Hall, and Tevin all meet the criteria I’ve already mentioned . I’m also going to include it has to be from an acceptable division. And not scrub teams like Southern Georgia. 

     

    They all have high RAS scores. We know this.

     

    How about the RBs who achieved the statistics you reference (not RAS scores) and how their careers turned out?  It's more logical that a player who dominated in college will be better at the next level.

    Dunno if this has been linked yet.  What do you think about this @IronMaidenBills

     

    https://ras.football/2017/01/17/rb-relative-athletic-scores-ras-table/?amp

     

    Saw that earlier.

     

    One thing I noticed is the best PASS CATCHING RBs are not at the top of the list.

     

    That's what we need most, yes?

     

    A few notables off the top of my head I searched for there...

     

    McCoy - 6.22

    Kamara - 8.11

    McCaffrey - 8.44

    James White - 4.94

    Kevin Faulk - 7.4
