stony Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 What is Reggie's dad doing posting here? To the point, your opinion is based on what? A youtube video? Or just the natural off-season fantasy that an unknown factor will work out. He's never played a NFL down, is learning a new scheme and one that requires LBs to cover and run well. He's not a Thomas Davis type and it's not a guarantee he fits in McD's defense. Not to mention, the new coaching staff owes him nothing, 2nd round pick or not. Sucks to read this, but it's so true. We've got a run stopping LB fresh off a torn ACL coming into what is effectively his rookie season. I hope he can stay healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan_34 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 BillsVet, All you have to do is watch him play. He was considered to be a R1 pick, even a top 3 pick at one time. He plays the game with more aggression than most players. He has the pedigree. Besides, my son, I mean Reggie is just a great kid. He's definitely something to get excited about if you're a true Bills fan. I suppose im not a true Bills fan then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KollegeStudnet Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 me on ragland. the guy was pulled from the biggest game of his career. he has yet to play an nfl down lets not ointment him as the best ever. True to all of that. He did battle for a position every year at a program where it is common to get replaced by a younger, hungrier player. I'm stoked to see what this guy has. Reggie and Brown battling it out will hands down be the best for this team. Competition is key and the ILB spot is a strong suit for this team.

boyst Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Reggie needs ointment? -What the hell has he gone and gotten himself into? Wrap the bannana, dumass! well, lets wait until he has done something. he hasn't even scratched the surface to his career. disirregardless of his potential, it's a real mess to think he has potential, that's just nuts. give it time, he could be good, but we can't' ointment him a top linebacker like we did so many other great bills players.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 He's, in effect, the second first round pick coming in this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webster Guy Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Dear Reggie, this is Jay Ajayi. I know you were watching the games last year when he put up 420 yards against us in two games. He's not even very good. Outside of the two games he played us the guy got around 50 yards a game. Please be sure to put a poster on your wall with his face on it and remember what he did to us, in our own stadium in front of our own children. Thanks Reggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Fantastic! Now the Bama fan on here tells us that Reggie isn't all that good. Can somebody please tell me who the heck actually is any good??? Because apparently as soon as someone slips on the charging Buffalo they instantly become mediocre at best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrivefourfive Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I can't wait to see him peak as a low level pro bowler in year three, then disappoint, then sign a big contract else where, and finally mail it in for the rest of his career. Once a Bill, always a Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NeckBeard Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 OP, to be honest, I am skeptical. Best case: he plays great, and we don't worry about it anymore. Worst case: another lost pick by the previous FO. I'm hoping for the best, but I'm not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 well, lets wait until he has done something. he hasn't even scratched the surface to his career. disirregardless of his potential, it's a real mess to think he has potential, that's just nuts. give it time, he could be good, but we can't' ointment him a top linebacker like we did so many other great bills players. he either has potential or he doesn't, they must of felt he had or why draft him? the unfortunate injury sidelined him from showing if he had any and it will be nice to see him have his chance this season. I believe he has the potential, not crowning him or even claiming he will (although I believe he will, he has talent at the position, based off his college career) have an elite career, but he has the potential. I agree to wait until he has done something at this level before claiming him a top linebacker, don't see how anyone could? he comes from a well coached school where defense was a dominate force and he was part of it and has the skill/potential to become a pretty good linebacker at the next level, imo. looking forward to what he can bring to the game.

3rdand12 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 ^^This^^ I'm excited to see him in action. I think he is going to be good and fun to watch. I am going to agree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Kool Aid alert! He was a second round pick which makes him a second round talent. Also, it typically take 2 years to fully come back from an ACL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jethro_tull Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Don't be sleepin' on this guy. He's a first round talent if you ask me. Since Ragland missed all of last year with an ACL tear it's just like we got an extra R1 pick this year. Enjoy!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bzn7AN9k1s. yet another reason for hope.

OldTimer1960 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 I am excited to see how he does in the NFL. He certainly had a very good college career and I think that those who question his speed are a bit off base. As someone up thread said, he isn't Von Miller fast, but he has similar speed to some very good NFL LBs. I think getting him and Lawson back this year is a lot like having and extra 1st and 2nd round picks this year. Main fear with Ragland is him being over his best playing weight. Hope he is in great shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
