Merged 2X: Trade for Patrick Ramsey?/Ramsey an option?

[CanePhin22]

I live in dc...let me tell you about patrick ramsey

he takes WAY too long to decide where to go with the ball, and when he does, he has a slow release...the 'skins offensive line is respectable, but they can't hold the line forever.

add that to his immobility, and you know the reason he gets injured every year.

the dude gets rocked every week, but I'm actually surprised he was still concious after the clothesline sack he took on sunday.

Yes, he has an arm, but something just isn't right with him.

If you're right, then the guy sounds like a Feeley clone. They can keep him.

I'd take a look. I would be curious to see what Washington would be willing to take for him? Maybe a 4th-5th rder?

Positives: Well-proportioned frame with broad shoulders … Has a quick release and a live arm with excellent velocity on his deep tosses … Sets up fluidly with good balance and footwork … Poised under pressure, showing toughness stepping up in the pocket … Goes through progressions and does a nice job reading defenses … Shows power and snap in his release, delivering with proper over-the-top mechanics … Steps off his front foot and generates good ball speed, giving his receivers a chance to compete for the long ball … Throws a tight spiral with a good arc that is easy to catch … Vocal leader who commands respect from his teammates … Senses pressure well and can slide to escape from pressure … Can look off and hold the safety, placing his deep tosses over either shoulder of his receivers and away from the defender … Shows the ability to throw in either direction when on the move … Has the ability to find his secondary targets … Very accurate throwing down the middle.
Negatives: Needs to work on his footwork setting up in the pocket, as he is not always quick to reach his drop/set point … Needs to show more patience when under pressure, as he will loft the ball into traffic every now and then … Lacks a soft touch, as he puts too much power behind his short throws (they are accurate, though) … Has trouble following through with his release when forced out of the pocket … Tries to aim at the receiver's numbers, which results in a handful of dropped passes … While he can slide out of the pocket, he is not an elusive runner and will get caught quickly … Little slow-footed and runs too upright, taking unnecessary hits … Good ball-handler, but is not deceptive with his fakes … Will commit to a route and throw blindly on occasion … Reads defenses well, but his overall vision is suspect … Needs good protection up front to be effective due to a lack of escapability.

baltimore would probably trade for him since their looking for a qb.

My bet is in a couple of weeks he'll be starting for Baltimore. Maybe the Ravens trade a decent pick for him.

By the way he isn't a Feeley clone and it's not like he can't improve at all. The Gibbs system is terribly old school by now. I would look into it, but I'd like a much younger QB from the draft instead. I'd like to depending on the OL, go DT/QB/CB during the draft, but that's looking far ahead....

WHAT I WANT MORE THAN ANYTHING IS FOR THE DOLPHINS TO TAKE ONE AGAINST THE JETS ANY WAY THEY CAN!!! :D

 

[NYNCDOLFAN]

ESPN just reported Patrick Ramsey has asked to be traded after being demoted. Do we look into this?

Come on he sux!!!! the only QB now I wouldn't mind seeing added to the roster is COUCH..Other then that a nice Rookie to groom in next year's draft...GO GUS!!!!!!

 

[Jnaledu3]

If Gus keeps playing well, I dont think that they will try to bring in a significant QB during the season. You dont trade for QBs and shake things up when you are winning.

Our QB will come in the next draft.

 

[Finland]

I would take Ramsey over Feeley!

Go for a great QB at this point, Is that Ramsey? Likely not.

 

[Samphin]

Ramsey to Baltimore would make sense. I mean, he probably wouldn't even have to move.

Ramsey is not a Feeley clone by any stretch of the imagination

 

[ckparrothead]

Ramsey is an option, but not during the season. The trade demands for him would be too high because Snyder would want to get something good in return. If we wait til next offseason, he might come free.

Then again, Snyder is so easily fooled by value we might try and trade him Feeley for Ramsey straight up talking about how Feeley was worth a 2nd round pick a year ago blah blah blah. LOL.

 

[NJFINSFAN1]

I think we'll stay with Gus for a while.

 

[earl the pearl]

Ramsey is not a Feeley clone by any stretch of the imagination

he has a better arm, but gets sacked harder and more often

 

[amir7]

id much rather draft jacobs

 

[4evaFinz]

With the way Frerotte played, Ramsey has 0 value to us.

 

[Ex-DolfanDaveInMI]

Ramsey for Feeley and a conditional seventh. Both of these guys need a fresh start.

 

[Hostile 17]

I remember back when Spurrier came in I was really lusting after Ramsey coming to Miami. He was a great young QB back then: great arm, good accuracy and a fast release. I thought we might hoodwink Snyder and get him away from them.

However, after both Spurrier and Gibbs getting Ramsey absolutely pasted for the last two years, it may be he has nothing left. Sometimes good young QBs just get killed playing for bad clubs and they never recover their good mechanics.
