Browns 2025 NFL Draft RAS scores for every pick
When evaluating the Browns' 2025 draft, a crucial metric to consider is the Relative Athletic Score (RAS). Created by math wiz Kent Lee Platte, RAS condenses the wealth of NFL Combine and pro day data into a simple 0-to-10 score, revealing a prospect's athleticism relative to their position. This score is derived by grading each athletic test result based on percentile rankings within their position, offering an objective way to compare players. A higher RAS indicates greater relative athleticism, with a perfect 10.00 being a rare achievement.
For Browns fans, understanding a draftee's RAS score provides valuable insight into their raw physical potential. While not the only factor in evaluating a player, it's a standardized tool used by NFL teams to assess whether a prospect possesses the necessary athleticism to thrive. It allows for easy comparisons across positions and draft classes.
As we review the RAS scores of the Browns' 2025 selections, remember that this metric only evaluates their athleticism, a key component of a profile, but not the whole picture. For a comprehensive grade you can find that here. Now, let's review the RAS for our new draft crop.
1.05 - Mason Graham
2.33 - Carson Schwesinger
2.36 - Quinshon Judkins
3.67 - Harold Fannin Jr.
3.94 - Dillon Gabriel
4.126 - Dylan Sampson
5.144 - Shedeur Sanders

Mel Kiper Jr. Reveals His Honest Opinion on Browns' Controversial Draft Class

Mel Kiper Jr. Reveals His Honest Opinion on Browns' Controversial Draft Class originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Hours before the draft and in the weeks that have followed, the Cleveland Browns have captured quite a bit of the NFL Draft conversation. They made the biggest move around the draft board and came away with the class' most polarizing prospect, following a stunning three day wait. Advertisement Overall, the Browns certainly checked the boxes in terms of their pre-draft needs. Cleveland traded back from No. 2 overall, securing significant draft capital from the Jacksonville Jaguars while still landing a top-10 prospect in Mason Graham. They needed a quarterback and instead came away with two, drafting both Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders. That bold strategy generated the most buzz, especially being the team that ended Sanders' slide into the fifth round. However, that was one of the driving forces behind Mel Kiper Jr.'s decision to give their draft haul an A+. Before analyzing that grade, let's add some necessary context. Kiper spent almost the entirety of ESPN's on-air draft coverage yelling at the sun for answers as to why teams seemingly had no interest in Sanders, his No. 5 overall prospect. The Browns drafted two quarterbacks, but Sanders was the second after they took Dillon Gabriel in Round 3. Advertisement Now the motives behind having five quarterbacks on the depth chart are certainly questionable, but that is a separate conversation that takes away from the validity of this grade. So how accurate is this A+ from ESPN's draft guru? Stepping back from the quarterbacks, Cleveland's ability to land a future first just by moving three spots back turned into an excellent play. Graham will impact the Browns' defensive interior immediately next to Myles Garrett. Then in two separate rounds the Browns nailed down contingency plans for key starters both offensively and defensively. Starting on the defensive side, they used pick No. 33 to grab UCLA linebacker Carsons Schwesinger. Given Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah's uncertainty this season with a neck injury, the rookie may be thrown into the fire early on. Offensively, the Browns added Harold Fannin Jr., a standout tight end who could develop into a player capable of holding down the No. 1 spot on the depth chart given his outstanding production at Bowling Green. With David Njoku set to hit free agency next offseason, they now have a complement for a season and a potential replacement. Advertisement Cleveland also did a fine job identifying some backfield pieces in Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson who both stood out at their respective programs. Behind Jerome Ford, there is a real competition for reps in this offense. Altogether, those makeup a really solid class. But the decision to double dip on quarterbacks still seems unnecessary. Sure Sanders and Gabriel will compete for their share, but more likely than not the veterans on roster, especially Joe Flacco, will outclass them through training camp and into the season. One of those picks could have been used elsewhere, namely at wide receiver where they came away from the draft with nothing. In totality, that one gripe does not define this group and without a letter grade, the Browns clearly had one of the best weekends of the 32 teams in the league. But an A+ might be a bit of selfish wish casting on the part of Kiper Jr. Advertisement Related: Browns Among Favorites for 2026's Biggest Name Under Center Related: Flacco Talks Retirement As Shedeur Joins Browns This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 4, 2025, where it first appeared.

Browns Coach Reveals Shedeur Sanders' Chance To Win Starting Job

Browns Coach Reveals Shedeur Sanders' Chance To Win Starting Job originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Cleveland Browns authored one of biggest storylines of this year's NFL Draft with their eventual move on Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders in the fifth round after he was expected by some to be a top-10 pick. Advertisement Some so-called experts thought his college success wouldn't translate to the NFL after he played in an up-tempo offense with the Buffaloes. That's why it's surprising to some that Sanders is apparently adapting well to the huddle-first pro offense of the Browns - at least early in the summer. And maybe the "adapting'' could earn him a climb up the depth chart that includes Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel and Sanders. 'You can see them all winning the job, I think, right?' coordinator Tommy Rees said. 'And so in terms of the competition, we're so early in the process. We're so early in evaluating that. Yeah, I think, you know, we have a good group of guys that continue to push one another, and by the time September rolls around, we'll be ready to go.' Advertisement There are those in the media who are pushing the Shedeur idea. "Listen, in that building, there are people who believe that Shedeur can 100 percent be the starter of this football team," Martin said on ESPN's "Get Up" on Wednesday. "You said it's incumbent upon the Browns to put him in the situation, it's also incumbent upon Shedeur to do the work, which, talking to people in that building, they've said he is soaking up everything like a sponge." OK. Meanwhile ... Rees offered intel on how the young quarterback is adapting during OTAs. "He's worked his tail off. He's putting in a lot of work as all those guys are. You can tell on the mental side of the game, learning the system and calling it and having that rhythm to it, he's put a lot of time and work and effort into that," Rees said. "When you do that the game starts to slow down and you can focus on finding completions. He's done a good job of that as camp has progressed." Advertisement But here's the truth ... Reports are that Sanders has been taking the fourth-string reps and has mostly been participating in 7-on-7 drills and not the 11-on-11 drills that the other quarterbacks have been engaged in. So, hype aside, we're still a long way from getting an idea of how Sanders can adjust to the NFL. ... let alone be a starter.

Ex Joe Flacco Teammate Goes Off on Cleveland Browns QB's Mentoring Remarks

Ex Joe Flacco Teammate Goes Off on Cleveland Browns QB's Mentoring Remarks originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Cleveland Browns quarterback hopeful Joe Flacco was recently criticized for his revealing his thoughts on mentoring young quarterbacks. Of which he has three this offseason battling for the starting job. Advertisement Flacco simply stated that it's not his job to mentor younger players, but no matter how he answers, he knows he'll get lit up in the media for being wrong. 'It's a talking point. You can kind of, like, use it. It's a good question to bait somebody into answering, and no matter how they answer it kind of makes the guy that's answering it look bad,' he said. 'If I say I don't want to be a mentor, I look bad. If I say I do want to be a mentor, then I look like an idiot who doesn't care about being good and playing football..." 'I tend to try to be honest, and I've said I'm not a mentor. I play football. And in a quarterback room, there's already been a ton of times where there's learning experiences, and I have a lot of experience, and I can talk about things, and hopefully they listen, but it's not necessarily, like, my job to make sure they listen to me. And, you know, hey, hopefully you have a really good relationship with the guys that are in the room, and you naturally want to do that, you know, but that was a long-winded answer. But that's ultimately why I think you guys ask it.' Not long after those remarks went viral, former teammate and current ESPN analyst, Chris Canty, decided to make remarks of his own that make it sound like he didn't hear a word that Flacco said. Advertisement "Yes! [He should mentor young players.] Because mentoring a young player is only going to make that player better, Canty said on Unsportsmanlike." Which there in by makes the team better. You're only as strong as your weakest link. So the whole point of the exercise is that everybody makes everyone better. ... It's what you're supposed to do. "It's a ridiculous answer from Joe Flacco." What? It sounds like Canty didn't hear a word of Flacco's thoughts on mentoring. Flacco's point was clear, that while he may feel one way, no matter how he answers, he's going to get lit up. And in the end, he got lit up for the strangest reason of them all. Advertisement Canty and Flacco were teammates in Baltimore for the three seasons Canty played there from 2013-15. Canty was drafted by the Dallas Cowboys in the fourth round of the 2005 NFL Draft, where he played four seasons before joining the Giants for another four years. He ended his professional career in Baltimore after the 2015 season.
