The redskins alwasy seem to show their hand too much when they have a player to trade. I know that teams probably know anyway that the skins would not bring ramsey back next year but there is something to be said for thinking somethign and having all doubt removed.

That's true, but us showing our hand doesn't change the facts that the Raiders and Jets need a QB and that nobody was offering us anything higher than a 5th rounder (plus a possible 3rd). They might have upped their offer if they sensed a disparity in bargaining positions, but I think it's clear that PR isn't going to fetch much on the open market.

We are still not sure if there is already a deal for Ramsey complete and just hasnt been reported yet. Maybe thats why the Skins signed him possibly knowing they already have a deal that lets Ramsey go.
