Prospect Profile
Patrick Ramsey
Position: Quarterback
College: Tulane
Height: 6-2
Weight: 219
Hometown: Ruston, La.
ANALYSIS
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.
CAREER NOTES
Earned one of the most prestigious awards in the nation when he was named a National Football Foundation/College Football Hall of Fame Scholar-Athlete, one of sixteen players nationwide, in 2001 … Set a school record with at least one touchdown pass in 31-straight games … Completed 798 of 1,355 passes (58.9 percent) for 9,205 yards, 72 touchdowns and 51 interceptions, surpassing the old school career-records of 649 completions of 1,163 passes for 8,419 yards and 70 touchdowns by Shaun King (1995-98) and 41 interceptions by Terrence Jones (1985-88) and Roch Hontas (1976-79) … His 58.9 pass completion percentage is topped only by Mike McKay (59.9 percent, 1981-82) in Green Wave annals … His 9,103 yards in total offense placed him third in school history behind King (9,468) and Jones (9,445).
