To better capture a player’s complete physical trait set, a third formula was created. This third formula blended aspects of SPARQ and True Freak Rating, so it was named Size, Length, and Athleticism (SLA) score. Essentially, SLA is a weighted blend of the previous two formulas. SPARQ tends to rate small explosive players very highly, and True Freak Rating rates long, lumbering players high. On the other hand, SLA serves to showcase desirable blended measurable sets. These three equations give us a good set of size, length, and athleticism analytics to quantify players measurables for predictive purposes. The following pages include all the Slaytic macro measurable profiles for the 2017 NFL Draft Class. These macro measurables are interesting and informative on their own, but what do they mean for NFL Draft evaluation purposes? To find out, position specific Slaytic thresholds were created to identify which measurable profiles had the highest and lowest chances of NFL success based on 17 years of measurable precedent. But, more on that after the 2017 results. 2017 Slaytics Results Table Key: tFREAK% = Size and Length Positional Percentile SPARQ% = Athleticism Positional Percentile SLA% = Size, Length, and Athleticism Positional Percentile

Thanks for posting, but I am beyond the analytical phase for this draft at this point.

I just want to know who is in trouble now.
