Offensive Linemen
Calculating OL
Depth Analytics Scores
Athleticism (Up to 25 Total Points)
An Offensive Lineman’s athleticism is crucial for the position to help them mirror twitchy pass rushers in pass protection and get out in space on screens and in the run game. This is calculated based off a player’s RAS score.
23-25 Elite Athleticism
20-22.99 Great Athleticism
15-19.99 Good Athleticism
10-14.99 Average Athleticism
5-9.99 Below Average Athleticism
4.99- Poor Athleticism
Each team’s Offensive Tackles account for 15% of a Team’s Offense Score when calculating the roster grade.
Each team’s Interior OL (Guards and Center) account for 15% of a Team’s Offense Score when calculating the roster grade.
That’s 30% of the entire Offense Score. It really does start in the trenches.
So let’s break down how we create the Analytics score.
Measurables (Up to 10 Total Points)
Not every successful Tight End has to be made in a lab, but having more height and weight can help them win as both a blocker and catcher and reduce potential injury. This score is calculated based on the average of a player’s Height/Weight RAS composite.
9+ Elite Measurables
8 Great Measurables
7 Good Measurables
6 Average Measurables
5- Below Average Measurables
Run Blocking (Up to 15 Total Points)
Offensive Linemen need to be effective moving people in the ground game. Run Blocking score is comprised of run block win rate and other advanced data metrics.
13+ Elite Run Blocking
11-12.99 Good Run Blocking
8-10.99 Average Run Blocking
6-7.99 Below Average Run Blocking
5.99- Poor Run Blocking
Pass Blocking (Up to 15 Total Points)
It all comes down to keeping the Quarterback’s jersey clean, and that starts with an Offensive Lineman’s ability to pass protect. Pass Blocking score is comprised of pass block win rate and other advanced data metrics.
13+ Elite Pass Blocking
11-12.99 Good Pass Blocking

8.0-8.49 Below Average Blocking Efficiency

Penalties (Up to 10 Total Points)
Discipline, both pre and post snap, is a huge area of emphasis for Offensive Lineman. If you keep getting flagged trying to get the job done, all the other good things you’re doing goes unnoticed. Every penalty committed is a half-point deduction, starting from 10 points.
10 Zero Penalties Committed
(0.50) Half Point Dropped Per Penalty Committed
0.00 20+ Penalties Committed

Offensive Linemen often need to lead the charge on pulling blocks or getting into the open field on screens or wide runs or toss plays. Calculated based off second level success rates.

3.0-3.99 Great Durability
2.0-2.99 Average Durability

4.0+ Elite Production
3.0-3.99 Great Production
2.0-2.99 Average Production
1.99- Poor Production
0.00- Rookie (No Production Yet Registered)
