I agree SkinsnCanes except there's the little matter of the $40+ million contract and $7 million signing bonus that was given to Brunnel. If Brunnel isn't the starter this year and part of next, I know I for one will be extremely pissed off at the FO (and forgive me for saying this but also a little at Mr. Gibbs since Brunnel was his call) for giving up a 3rd round selection in a deep draft and giving a big ass contract for a player who's not even a starter. And while I still hope the starting job really is a competition, it could only make Ramsey a better qb if he sat and learned for atleast most of this upcoming year. And people talk about Brunnel like he's a bum or something, but I think talent wise with his expireince, leadership, and field vision, he's a better qb than Ramsey right now. Brunnel knows not to hang onto the ball forever and still has a little giddy-up in his step to get out of the pocket. I have a feeling Mr. Gibbs knows a little more about the talent of his players than we do so I'm gonna trust him whether he wants to keep Ramsey or trade ramsey and bring in a qb that could be his project.
