Reggie Ragland
Alabama
Not my favorite choice, but he is a darned good player at a need position.

Buckner and Jack below him?
-
I'd take Jack over Ragland, and Buckner is awfully good.
-
Jack over Ragland and I'd be happy with that draft overall. Whitehair in the 2nd, Will Redmond in the 3rd.

If we could trade down a bit (probably for a team looking to draft a QB) and draft Ragland while picking up an extra 2nd rd pick, maybe even an extra 3rd rd pick, that would work for me.
Ragland isn't the flashiest player, but he's a darned good athlete, very productive, a physical presence and a smart player.
Look at the closing speed and tracking ability at :52

I like him, seems like a very solid pick. I would be real happy with that pick. I know that is a highlight real, but you see a whole lot of solo tackles in it. He is a thumper, we need that.

If we could trade within top 15, draft Ragland and get Garnett or Whitehair with the extra pick...
But I'm thinking maybe it would be a 3rd not a 2nd, unless there's a team hot for a QB.
If in the 3rd maybe a CB or Christian Westerman.
So many needs this year, unbelievable.
