Reggie Ragland Trade looking like a huge win for Veach

No clue why Buff did this, but we will take it gladly

KPL looks really good too. I hope we re-sign him, I think he and Ragland could be a great duo with Ragland being the thumper and KPL having the speed and athleticism.

Veach found two guys who can really play that position in the span of about 1-2 weeks, and Dorsey didn't find a solution in years.

I disagree regarding KPL. He looks like he's running in quicksand.

:hmmm: Not sure what makes you say that. He is our fastest LB (other than maybe Eligwe). Had a great play in coverage Saturday.

Maybe I'm unfairly remembering him looking slow. It just seems like every LB we have is really slow

ILChief 12-22-2017 03:23 PM

Remember Ramik Wilson?

ToxSocks 12-22-2017 03:28 PM

I don't think KPL looked slow at all. I thought he looked like he lacked natural instinct.

O.city 12-22-2017 03:30 PM

KPL has also been playing with a hamstring injury

Because they didn't want to have to switch out their ILB on running or passing downs. It's very difficult to keep teams from taking advantage of a 2-down ILB by passing on early downs.

I thought KPL was one of our faster LBs.

Who's she?

Ragland has been great. Bills fans have to be pretty pissed at how that whole thing transpired.

I thought the same. Thinking instead of just reacting.

The Bills give us the pick to grab our QBOTF and a LB we can hopefully watch for the next decade.

They really looked out for us. Thanks Buffalo!

ILB's seem to be set for a while. I don't expect DJ to be a Chief next year unless he takes a paycut.

What this team really needs is quality pass rushers and perhaps another CB.

Could use another WR. Tired of Incompletrius Harris too, he should be demoted to 3rd string and should only come in to block. Chiefs need a solid TE2. Harris has worse hands than Dwayne Bowe.
