The 2026 NFL Draft is over, and now it's all about analyzing each pick and how they fit.
The Washington Commanders selected six players in the 2026 draft, beginning with Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles at No. 7 overall. A former safety, Styles, the son of former NFL linebacker Lorenzo Styles, moved to linebacker in 2024. Styles quickly adjusted to the position, making himself a first-round pick with his 2025 performance.
However, it was at the 2026 NFL combine where Styles went from a first-round pick to a potential top-five selection. Styles posted historic results at the combine, which matched what you saw on film. Styles scored a nearly perfect 9.9 RAS.
RAS — also known as Relative Athletic Score — is a measurement of a player's athletic testing in relation to both size and historic results. Each individual measurement is graded on a scale of 0-10 (10 being the highest).
We know how much Washington GM Adam Peters values the RAS. You can see it in the free agents he signs and, especially, during the NFL draft. Let's take a quick look at how each Commanders' draft pick fared in RAS.
Sonny Styles was drafted in round 1 with pick 7 in the 2026 draft class. He scored a 9.99 RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 4 out of 3480 LB from 1987 to 2026.https://t.co/VzCzDJtnQl pic.twitter.com/JtKPQmkZF1
