Expert Analysis
Vic Castillo | Prep Redzone Scout
6’1, 200 pounds. From what I can gather, Cedric Ragland is a reclassified 2024 who formerly played ball at Timberline HS. Timberline HS is in Lacey, Washington, a ways away from the Kiski School. According to his previous Hudl, Ragland has dabbled with basketball, he also has team history with him registered at the Heir Academy in Puyallup, Washington.
I came into the live evaluation not knowing much out of Kiski Prep football outside of the many in-state reclassifiers. Cedric Ragland, the man behind center, was one of the prospects I was unfamiliar with. I purposefully didn’t dig into him, so that I can watch him perform without prior biases. Kiski struggled early on, I had thought my trip out to see the program would go to waste. Thanks to Ragland’s efforts, Kiski was able to keep the Penn Charter game close.
LIVE* Cedric Ragland would scamper for two rushing touchdowns. In both instances Ragland would make multiple Quakers miss, either out-running or breaking through weak arm tackles. Ragland proves to be a serious mobile threat, a must to contain him in the pocket. Ragland would return a kick 50+ yards too, not often you see your quarterback back returning kicks, Ragland is that type of athlete behind center. Carries a bulky, sturdy build, yet proves he can out-run the average defender. Ragland would force Penn Charter to respect his arm, completing 3-4 big throws downfield. Great all-around effort put forth by the young man.
Taking a look at Ragland’s QC, I came away surprised to learn that he’s equally impressive a wideout, backer, and safety prospect. I’m not in the loop in terms of why reps are shared the way they are, yet I feel comfortable stating that Ragland is a quality starter at multiple positions for Kiski Prep. Plug him in at safety, let him run routes, put him behind center, let him return kicks. Quite the find. I will mention, it’s tough to project Ragland to DB because of his size, it’s tough to project him to wideout at the collegiate level for the same reason. I’d say LB and TE, even RB, would be good projections if he chooses to pursue next-level ball.
