Re: Will Saunders Affect Our QB Situation?

It's time we made a total commitment to the QB situation that's going to benefit the team long term, and not continue to rely on short term fixes. The debate between Brunell and Ramsey has been an ongoing one since the arival of Gibbs, and based on what we know of the present situation, how can one conclude there's any prospect of Ramsey being the QB here at any point in time. He has consistently maintained he wants' to play. With Jason Campbell in line as the projected future starter and Ramsey in the final year of his contract, it's difficult to see where he fits in. It would seem unlikely he would sit for another year, become an unrestricted free agent at the end of next season free to sign with any team and the Redskins not be compensated in any way. It's not likely he's going to be the starting QB here, so it would be incumbent upon the team to seek value in a trade (if possible) rather than see him walk away to the highest bidder.
It's going to be interesting to see how the addition of Al Saunders will impact who will likely be the QB. As much as I have defended Brunell in the past and not completely dismissed him as being ineffective, watching him closely this year still (in my mind) raises some questions about his ability (or lack thereof) to make all the neccessary throws for an offense to consistently sustain drives over a sixteen game season. Without a doubt we will have growing pains starting the young QB and will probably take a slight step back. The question remains then, do we start another season with Brunell as the starter, or be willing to sacrafice maybe a chance at the play-offs in 06 for the sake of development? "TOUGH DECISION"
