I believe he showed he was a leader in his first season when Spurrier put him in games late and he lead them back. I remember a Giants game that sold me on him when he almost lead them back to a win if not for a D. McCants fumble. He's not mobile, though, you're right. However, his completion percentage for his career is: 55.6%, has improved every year and last year was 62.1%.
*** Let me preface this by saying I am not a Ramsey-bashing Zach Mills clone, I don't like the pick, but I am guessing as to why the FO made the pick ***
My bad on the TD/INT #, I misread it when I was looking.. Here's why I say he's not a leader. He has guts physically, no doubt, but mentally he folded up his tent last pre-season when Brunell came in.. He said later in the season that he didn't deal with it well mentally. Yes, he's young, but you want your LEADER to step up and defeat a challenge, not have to wait until the guy who beat you out fails miserably before you get in.. How many come from behind wins does he have? Spurrier and Gibbs put him in games late and he made them exciting, but how many games did he win in that situation. That's how greatness develops.. 55.6% completion is not good.. His 62.1% last year was 12th in the league, career wise he is on par with Kyle Boller did last year.. From a Gibbs perspective (didn't scout him, didn't draft him) what from what you have seen leads you to beleive that he is ready to be more than the game manager he was at the end of the year last year?
