Trading Patrick Ramsey
 

I read on Fox Sports that the Skins are considering trading Ramsey for John Abraham once the season ends. I don't know that much about Abraham. Would this be a good deal for the Skins?

Um... YES.

Re: trading p ramsey
 

like i said in the other thread a few weeks ago that is what i was hoping for in the first place, we need agood DE and abraham=good DE
i never thought it was possible but if the want to, hey i am not complaining

Re: trading p ramsey
 

Damn the skins really love the Jets players huh...

Re: trading p ramsey
 

The Jets would be pretty dumb to make that move straight up.

Re: trading p ramsey
 

i agree, trading p ram (which to us is about nothing since hes a backup QB who has no future with us), for a guy like Abraham who is only 27, and a pro bowl caliber PASS RUSHING DE, this would be a great straight up trade :)

Re: trading p ramsey
 

Link? I also doubt the Jets make that move--would be good for us, especially as Campbell develops. We'll see... we're only at week 9 yet.

Re: trading p ramsey
 

they would be dumb but we would be very smart in the process. ramsey will not play for us ever again barring any type of injry . brunell will be the qb for the next couple of years then the reigns will be for campbell to take and i can not wait. abraham is a beast and with williams scheme he would be a hall of famer for us.

Re: trading p ramsey
 

I would definately make that trade. Abraham is still young and has some years in him. Plus we are grooming Campbell for the future and having Ramsey would only hurt that progression. If the Jets go straight up, then that is one hell of deal. An unproven QB for a proven DE with good pass rushing skills. Jets would actually end up with the short end of that stick, but I will take it. I like Ramsey and hate to see him go, but its clear Gibbs doesn't think he can do the job. Plus Daniels seems to be hurt alot. He would probably be more productive and stay fresh if he was in a rotation. He could even play some DT, which he is big enough to do now.

I think desperate is closer to the truth. Chad Pennington is good, but he's going to be walking with a cane soon. He's as frail as an old lady. I'm sure many coaches have seen game film of the pounding that Ramsey took on a regular basis, but continued to get up and play. Herm Edwards is one of those coaches that believes in supporting his players, almost to a fault, and he probably thinks Ramsey could perform well, given the opportunity. Coles might be dropping hints to him also, since he was Ramseys' favorite target.

If Ramsey could develop into a solid, mid tier QB(Marc Bulger, Matt Hasselbeck, etc.), he would be far more valuable to the Jets than even a stud defensive end like Abraham.

Re: trading p ramsey
 

It sounds great and all but what would the cap difference be? I know we need a pass rushing DE but we shouldn't break the bank for anybody.

Re: trading p ramsey
 

Everyone forgets Abraham sitting out the playoffs last season because he said he didn't want to jeopordize his upcoming contract, sounds like a real Gibbs type player, teams just may have a more favorable opinion of Ramsey than we do.

Re: trading p ramsey
 

thing is, it doesnt matter how good ramsey is in the future, he isnt going to do that here, so he is worth jack shit to us. even if we traded for abraham and we got like 5 sacks from him, it would be nice because we gave up someone who is worth nothing to us...just like kwame brown with the wizards. same thing. kwame wasnt going to do anything in washington, just like p ram isnt, so get what u can for him. something is better than nothing

Re: trading p ramsey
 

Abraham isn't going to be traded straight up and where is the salary he'll be seeking going to come from? I doubt we'll be able to pull it off.

p.s. I think Ramsey will be a Skin next year!
