RAGGED
hmm, should I do BADGER as BRAGGED about earlier? Have I DRAGGED my brain for anything not quite so obvious? Then there is FRAGGED, a word for a not very nice practice coined during the Vietnam War. Let's see... no, I have
GAUGED the situation and decided to exhange R for U.

EAGER to agree. ( U --> E ) Seven to nine letters seems to give the most flexibility.
