I agree that most, if not all of the talk about Ramsey wanting out is coming straight out of Sexton's mouth. He screwed up BIG TIME when he "negotiated" Ramsey's original contract (hence Ramsey's neither making big bucks, nor is he hitting our Salary Cap too hard). Sure, when the only "competition" for QB here in DC were the likes of Danny Woeful and Rob "I've got another concussion" Johnson, a contract filled with incentives based on playing time seemed to work in Ramsey's favor. Now that there's a good veteran QB in the mix, both Sexton & Ramsey see how poorly negotiated that contract really was. Ramsey is certainly tough, and has a great arm, but having the likes of Brunnell to work with him will only help Ramsey to grow into the stud that he has the potential to be. And I guarantee you this......if Gibbs sees Ramsey as the better QB, he'd just as soon have the highest paid clipboard holder if it means another chance at a ring.
