3rdand12 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I thought they said his knee was healed and he just needed to get re-acclimated? I mean he was playing for the Bills in the preseason... Did he hurt it again? I think both teams knew it was an investment in the future Ragland. Not current state The Ragland trade is a real head scratcher. He was the best player in the galaxy in training camp last year, per Rex. in this galaxy?

Alphadawg7 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Not wishing him bad... But, the trade was made for a reason. The only question is should have they waited for him to get fully healthy before pulling the plug? Everything I have read so far is that Rags has really impressed so far and people seem to think he will make a big contribution this year. Not sure in what context, but he has garnered some pretty good buzz there since arriving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wiz Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Nah... Im perfectly simmered. You tried calling me out, I proved you completely and utterly wrong and instead of admitting your mistake you're hiding behind another dumb post. We may both be Bills fans but other than that I'm sure we have very little in common. Lighten up Francis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonborn10 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 He wasn't that good before the knee. That really is all there is to it. He was a bad draft pick and a waste of multiple picks. At least Lawson is a much better fit for this 4-3 defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternOHBillsFan Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Was there something more to the knee? I mean Welker and AD tore two ligaments I believe around the December timeframe and we're both ready for next season. Justin Houston was doing plyometric drills without a brace around 3 months after his ACL surgery. I've had a few friends who tore theirs and none of them went past 9 months before they were fully healed. Ragland is going on 13 months and still not fully healed. Shawne Merriman. We have seen this before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Does this limited the tank? Ragland still hurt. Williams is on practice squad. The moves are not that farfetched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternOHBillsFan Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Does this limited the tank? Ragland still hurt. Williams is on practice squad. The moves are not that farfetched. No, ESPECIALLY with Gaines healthy. That in itself voids the Darby loss and with Matthews playing, Watkins gets hurt and the management are looking like geniuses.

That in itself voids the Darby loss and with Matthews playing, Watkins gets hurt and the management are looking like geniuses. I guess i worded that poorly. I mean does this limit or diminish all the tank talk. I agree. I would not be surprised if Matthews and Gaines match or surpass Watkins and Darbys individual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty McFly Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Simmer down, champ. You're also a Bills fan so you're at least as dumb as me, if not dumber. I also hope he has great career. Starting in 2019. Nah... Im perfectly simmered. You tried calling me out, I proved you completely and utterly wrong and instead of admitting your mistake you're hiding behind another dumb post. We may both be Bills fans but other than that I'm sure we have very little in common. :lol: Yall actually arguing thats so lame :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QB Bills Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Nah... Im perfectly simmered. You tried calling me out, I proved you completely and utterly wrong and instead of admitting your mistake you're hiding behind another dumb post. We may both be Bills fans but other than that I'm sure we have very little in common. The Ragland trade was for a pick in 2019, you goof. I'm guessing you didn't know that. Meaning it'd be best for the Bills if he wasn't a factor for the next two years, not just this season. Now go back to playing with your legos with your helmet on and let the adults converse.

HT02 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I'm sure they kid isn't 100% after coming back from such a major knee injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skibum Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 It has to be more than just an ACL. I have had both of mine repaired, and I was back to 100% in a year's time - and I'm not a gifted athlete with access to state-of-the-art rehab resources like Reggie Ragland is. I was fortunate to have minimal cartilage or other collateral damage both times, but it's very common for folks to damage the meniscus and/or articular cartilage at the time of injury. I wouldn't be surprised if we start hearing talk of microfracture surgery soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
