I think Ballard's method is just choose the guys with coolest names.
I've never looked into RAS until just now. Looking up several other picks who were compiled by that guy you linked shows that it looks like a fancy stat that doesn't really say much about whether or not they are a football player but its more of a number saying how likely it is that someone could've competed in the Olympics. First round picks sometimes are in the 5-6 RAS range, fifth rounders can have a 9.5 RAS.
