RAS scores for Dolphins' 2025 rookie class

The Miami Dolphins emphasized size over speed in the 2025 NFL draft. Even when the team picked a running back in Round 6, it chose 226-pound bruiser Ollie Gordon II over speedier backs still on the board.

While that was a departure from the Dolphins’ recent m.o. of hunting for 4.3 speed, especially at the skill positions, it doesn’t mean Miami ignored athleticism in its eight-player draft class.

Football analyst Kent Lee Platte has created a formula to calculate prospects’ Relative Athletic Score — measuring their size, strength, speed, and agility against other players at their position in the last four decades.

Here’s what the RAS scores for the Dolphins’ draft class look like:

Round 1, No. 13: Kenneth Grant, DL, Michigan

A footnote on Grant is that his testing scores are measured against all defensive tackles and not nose tackles, specifically. Platte believes if there was a delineation, it would’ve upped Grant’s score.

Round 2, No. 37: Jonah Savaiinaea, OL, Arizona

Round 5, No. 143: Jordan Phillips, DL, Maryland

Round 5, No. 150: Jason Marshall Jr, CB, Florida

Round 5, No. 155: Dante Trader Jr, S, Maryland

Round 6, No. 179: Ollie Gordon II, RB, Oklahoma State

Round 7, No. 231: Quinn Ewers, QB, Texas

Round 7, No. 253: Zeek Biggers, DT, Georgia Tech
