They're not wrong.

What does this even indicate?  Just based on where teams fall, there are as many teams with below average RAS and above average PFF grades as there are teams with above average RAS and below average PFF grades?  

Personally, RAS is important when evaluating draft prospects to make a determination on whether they can cut it in the league.  Our OL has 4 vets that have proven in other places that they can perform at average starter to Pro Bowl level and one sad joke of a 4th round pick.  This is why you have to start with Pollack.  4 of 5 starters you know for a fact can play better.  Even Williams was playing better under Turner.  

The FO, Turner, and Burrow will have to get together and make some philosophical changes this off-season.  If we're going to be a more run heavy team, Joe is going to have to get comfortable under center, the FO needs to invest in RB's and a replacement for Volson that can pull and get 2nd level blocks, and Zac needs to get an OL coach/run coordinator that actually knows what he's doing.  Joe has to get into his head that he can't keep taking unnecessary abuse.  It's ok to run, but he needs to slide in most cases.  It's ok to throw it away on 3rd down instead of taking a sack trying to keep the play alive.
