I agree with you, level of play is more important than experience. However, when it comes to level of play on the field, Ramsey's style of play is more similar to Bledsoe than Brady. Ramsey, like Bledsoe, has a very strong arm, but they both hold on to the ball way too long. They are both slow at reading defenses and deciding the correct place to throw the ball. Slow to release the ball. They are also both very slow footed and not very good at avoiding the rush. They both get sacked alot because they are not good at sensing the pass rushers around them.
Brunell, is more like Brady, they do not have the strongest arm. But they both are very good at scrambling to create more time to throw. They sense the rush around them better than Ramsey and can often escape. But most importmant they just win. It may not be pretty, but they just win.
Ramsey's clear weakness' are the only reason why I not yet ready to call him the next great Redskins QB. He needs to overcome these problems in his play before we make him our fulltime starter. It is the main reason why I think Gibbs paid a hefty price get Brunnell. Gibbs came in and saw the film of Ramsey and realized he is not yet ready to take us to the playoffs and beyond. He needs a year of coaching to get rid of his bad habit of holding the ball too long.
Having said all of this, I want Ramsey as our future QB more than anyone else.
