PREGAME The Raiders meet The Rams

[Allen2McVay]

Troy Reeder ran a faster 40 than Ernest Jones and nearly the exact same as Cooper Kupp.

Reeder may be a Jag - but he is actually a plus athlete for a linebacker.

It simply does not translate to an NFL football field, in my opinion.

He also had a better 3 cone time than jones.

Just shows that playing in shorts isn't playing in pads. Reeder is terrible.

Reeder takes terrible angles on ball carriers and then once he tries to tackle the RB, he gets carried for a few extra yards.

He might be an athlete but he just doesn't have the capability to even be a below average LB.

He is in the Low D F Plus range.

Rozeboom - F- I have seen just too many face flops for him to even be an F grade.

I think the evidence is out there that Reeder is somewhat of a JAG.

But there is this constant white guy stereotype that just gets lazily thrown out there.

I want to see some all 22 break down of him and what he is doing and not doing.

Because no one really that posts here convince me much of anything on this tangent besides just a bunch of group think and repeating what other people say.

Aiden O'Connell.....
....so slow that I think Reeder would smoke him in a 40 yard dash

Remember that three sack game Troy Reeder had against the Washington football team?
Repeat !!

Whoever loses this one can start looking to next season. We need to win and hope they get some guys back next week. Although I think it may be a couple more weeks. Hope they can hang on till then.

Did the Vikings Unearth a Diamond in the Rough in LB Troy Reeder?

Linebacker Troy Reeder is coming to Minnesota with an opportunity to not only make a difference on special teams, but also in the Flores defense.

Per Kent Lee Platte’s RAS Score, Reeder is a better athlete than virtually every other linebacker in the game, coming in with a sizzling 9.32 score. The 6’3″, 245-pound linebacker is still only 28. He shouldn’t have too much wear & tear on his body since he has played sparingly across 4 NFL seasons.

You can see it too on the field when he runs with TEs or backs 30 yards down the field. The dude is a good athlete no doubt. His problem is change of direction which is why I think he should play about 10-15 lbs lighter.

Jones btw would not run anywhere near his original 40 time due to that knee. So while I think he makes quicker reads and positions better, and also is stronger at the point, he wasn't an answer for us.
