Possible reason for the Ramsey trade stalling...

Yep. Two years ago AJ Feeley was worthy of a 2nd round pick. This year, that very same team was willing to give the same compensation for a proven pro-bowler in Culpepper.

Given that change in the market value of QBs, I'd be happy with a 7th rounder for Ramsey. I just wished we acted a bit sooner and traded him a few months back before it was known that Brees and Culpepper would be available. Maybe then we could have gotten a 4th rounder. But the CBA uncertainty kind of made it impossible to make a move at that point, so I'm not sure there was anything the front office could do.

Just take what we can get for Ramsey and move on, even if it's a 7th rounder.
