Sunday marks the final day of the NFL Combine and it is time for the offensive lineman to show NFL scouts what they got. Georgia football has had players performing every day so far at the Combine, and that remained the same on Sunday as the Bulldogs had a whopping four offensive lineman taking center stage.

While every offensive lineman had a pretty good day, one Bulldog in particular rose to the occassion the most. And that is Tate Ratledge.

Tate Ratledge has a record setting Combine

The RAS score has been tracked at the NFL Combine since 1987. This score essentially compiles all of the data from various events and drills such as the 40-yard dash and vertical jump and spits out a score out of 10. Ratledge did about as good as you possible can and scored a 9.97.

This score ranks fifth out of 1,583 offensive guards that have gone through the Combine drills since 1987.

This is huge for a lot of reasons because Ratledge is one player who had a lot to prove at the Combine this year. For starters, Georgia's offensive line struggled all season as UGA had one of their worst rushing seasons in recent years. A lot of this had to do with a ton of injuries suffered on the line throughout the year, which Rateldge was part of.

So not only did Ratledge maybe not have as good of a season as he had hoped, but he also dealt with some injuries. But those issues appear to be a thing of the past as he had a near perfect day at the Combine.

Ratledge will have another opportunity at Georgia's upcoming Pro Day later this month to show NFL scouts what he's made of, but so far he has done about as well as anyone could have hoped. So his draft stock will most certainly be on the rise after this weekend.
