And in Round 2, the #Bills traded up for a player they liked at 19. Reggie Ragland wants to be Rex's new Ray Lewis: https://t.co/uiQafj3Ocb

To Reggie Ragland, it’s not a criticism, not a slight.

 

Label him a throwback linebacker. Go ahead and tell him he should've played in a different era.

 

He loves it.

 

“It’s a compliment to me because those linebackers back then were very tough, physical guys," Ragland said. "They can call out the defenses and were smart guys, too.”

So why can't Ragland who ran a 4.62 and is bigger do the same?

I think some people get caught up in the can't cover. It doesn't literally mean he will be 8 yards behind a guy tripping over himself. I think it's important to point that out sometimes instead of getting caught in the nosedive of latching onto a scouting report bullet point.

Love this player and this pick. A true leader/warrior type to lead this D for the foreseeable future. Perfect fit. You can really start to see in your mind what a versatile amoeba-like Defense this will become.
