Browns draft 2017: The SPARQ data that might have informed their picks

CLEVELAND, Ohio — The Browns made 10 choices in the 2017 NFL Draft, starting with Myles Garrett and ending with Matthew Dayes.

Through two drafts, one of the components that has become apparent with the team’s drafting philosophy is their value on very athletic players. One tool they may be utilizing is the athletic metric referred to as SPARQ.

Here is a look at how the Browns’ 10 draft picks fare in their SPARQ scores based on the percentile of athletes at their respective positions from 0 to 100.

They are sorted in tiers from elite (90th-or-higher percentile at its respective position) to the lowest level (25th-or-lower).
