jeffismagic Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 If the Bills took Foster, what happens to Ragland who Whaley traded up to select last year.? Aren't they both MLB? I don't think Ragland is a mike in the McD Carolina scheme or Frazier's Tampa 2. He can play 2 downs as a WLB if we run the McD Carolina scheme.

thunderingsquid Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 2nd WR Juju Smith-Schuster WR Chris Godwin S Budda Baker CB Chidobe Awuzie CB Quincy Wilson I like this list right here, amen CNY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalostu2 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I didn't see any mention of WR Dede Westbrook. If you have not watched anything on him it is worth a look. He has a different gear and could be had late in Rd 2 or early 3rd. I also like Webb as a prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can play 2 downs as a WLB if we run the McD Carolina scheme. On the contrary, I'd say Ragland's size and experience would put him at MLB and if we got Foster he would be better suited at the Will. Per NFL.com: Sources Tell Us (Foster)"He's not a MIKE linebacker. I think he's a pure run-and-hit WILL linebacker with good cover talent. I'm worried about what his medicals will show because he's had some issues with stingers during his career. I have a higher grade on him than I had on Reggie Ragland. Better pro potential to me." -- NFC director of scouting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbflaBill Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 If they can get a first round safety, then Zay jones in the 2nd and Derek rivers in the 3rd.. Homerun draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffismagic Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 If you say so. You are Magic after all. Ragland was drafted to be a smart inside thumper in Rex's 3-4 defense. That scheme is now out the window and the new coach favors mike linebackers with terrific range. Nothing magic about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY315 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I think Ragland has more range than people give him credit for. He'll do fine in a zone D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 For some reason I have a draft-crush on Budda Baker. I am already certain we won't take him and I will be miserable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boater Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I'm not naming names.. because I don't know the field in that fanatical detail. Day 2: Cornerback and Wide Receiver. (if day 1 was CB, go WR. if day 1 was WR, go CB) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KollegeStudnet Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 With the breaking news, Peppers! I think Ragland has more range than people give him credit for. He'll do fine in a zone D I agree. Can't wait to see him out there. Should be a decent fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 For some reason I have a draft-crush on Budda Baker. I am already certain we won't take him and I will be miserableMe too!! I actually have him in my top 10 overall targets for the Bills. I would love him in round 2. He's a football player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I know. Before reading Old School's amazing post, I thought kicker was the only thing that mattered. I mean, the game is called FOOTball, right? And we all know that Brady and Belichick would still be waiting on their first Lombardi trophy without Vinatieri and Gostkowski. Yeah I dunno guys, I've been giving OldSchool's post a lot of thought and I think he's on to something. Let's just hope other teams don't catch on to this or someone may draft a QB before us.

Let's just hope other teams don't catch on to this or someone may draft a QB before us. True enough. I spent 4 hours meditating to prepare to begin to start processing Oldschool's post. To no avail. I realized that I cannot cope with this mental task. Unfortunately, now I am profoundly aware and disturbed by my own inadequacies. I know I cannot approach his discourse constructively; however, I did learn a lot about myself. Thank you Oldschool . . . thank you.
