A little bit of weight but substantially more to do with height.

Take 'Tall Guy' there and make him 6'1'', 200 lbs and his RAS drops to 9.72. Make him a 6'4'' stringbean at 195 and he's 9.85, he's at 9.92 at 215.

So messing with weight can swing you maybe .05 points here and there, but height can give you .2 or more of a swing.

Like I said, RAS is more concerned with height than it is athleticism.

It's a stupid metric. It's an ESPECIALLY stupid metric for LBs.
