The perfect trade for Ramsey

[MTK]

Reality is the Dolphins were stupid in giving up a 2nd rounder for the unproven Feeley.

I highly doubt we would be able to get a 2nd for Ramsey, if we can well that's great, but I'd be very happy with a 3rd.

All of this debate is IMO the reason that we should have dealt him right after we got Brunell. I read a lot of articles from a lot different papers, Dallas in particular, that said that teams should consider giving up a first rounder for him. I thought then that he should have been traded and I feel even stronger now that his trade value has diminished a bit. We should have gotten a first rounder for him then and signed a veteran. Joe Gibbs knew then that he didn't want Pat to be the starter, I don't know why the Skins insisted on hanging on to him for so long and not letting him get a shot. If I were Ramsey, I wouldn't want to come back.

That sounds good now but what if Brunell had been out for the year when he took that hit? Then Campbell would have been the starter for the rest of that game and the Philly game. I think that the team would have been better off with Ramsey as the #2 in that situation.

Yeah, but if they had dealt Ramsey last season then they would have had a veteran backup to Brunell. I see what you're saying, but I think that if they had gotten rid of Ramsey then, there's no way Gibbs wouldn't have looked to replace him with a vet.

Exactly.. The Dolphins got killed for that deal. I'd love for a team to give us a 2nd for him and would gladly be wrong, but I think a third rounder is the best we can hope for.

the dolphins got hosed. no doubt about that.

then again we traded schroeder to the raiders for jim lachey. ramsey might do well with their vertical offense. or whatever offense they put in with their next coach... he does have the kind of arm that al davis covets
