Terez Paylor's 2016 pre-draft scouting report on Ragland:
(Myles Jack was the No. 1 ILB)
Quote:
2. REGGIE RAGLAND, Alabama
Measurables: 6-1, 247, 23, 4.72
Bio: Two-year starter who had 102 tackles (6.5 for loss), six quarterback hurries and 2.5 sacks in 15 games in 2015. Also had zero interceptions and seven pass deflections.
Consensus: Smart, productive player who has the look of an old-school inside linebacker. Has the bulk to hold up in the box and at the point of attack against offensive linemen in the running game. Uses his hands well. Long speed isn’t great but he shuffles his feet well and shows good short-area quickness and burst. Packs a punch as a tackler. Has good instincts; plays the game with his eyes. Does a nice job sifting through trash against the run. Occasionally lined up as an edge rusher in a three-point stance. Leader who reportedly has good football character. Lost 12 pounds from the Senior Bowl to the combine; will need to keep his weight in check.
Grade: 6.9
