Re: Thoughts on Ramsey and Brunell...
I have been a huge Ramsey fan since the Ole Ball Coach drafted him. I think he has the smart and definately the arm to succeed in the NFL. He has never gotten a fair shake on trying to grab the starting position. The changing QBs every 3 games w/ spurriers first year was a joke, then the 2nd year Ramsey showed true promise. Until team blitz his head and spurrier would not adjust WR routes to hot routes when teams blitzed. Plus Ramsey is a tough kid. He took more beatings than any QB I have seen in a long time. Regarding the QB situation, Ramsey will be gone after this season. He either gets traded to Baltimore or the Jets, maybe Cleveland or Detroit. There are many teams out there that believe Ramsey can play. We can not have two first round picks sitting on the bench, that would be a complete waiste. I also believe it was a big waste on signing Brunell. I think he has played remarkably well this year, but if you are not going to playoffs, what difference does it make if you go 8-8, or 0-16, you dont make it either way. I believe if we lose a game or two from here on out, I think you have to take your pick of who is going to be your QB, Ramsey or Campbell which I think Joe thinks its going to be Campbell. Brunell is getting paid 40 some million dollars, and its a joke. This is just one of the moves I think was made in haist, and if we had some people that would tell Joe that maybe this guy isnt' right for us we may not have gone after him. We could have gotten Garcia for alot less, who his more athletic and younger that Brunell. Its always alot what if and shoulda woulda coulda crap, every year. We will just have to wait and see what happens, I am sure it will be something everyone of us will be talking about.
