I really like Ramsey as well and do not want him traded. He will be a great QB soon.. but...Ramsey was drafted with the last pick of the first round and is worth a 1st round pick, but not the #1 pick.
Ramsey also still has some faults he needs to work on (he holds on to the ball way too long, is not very good at side stepping the pass rush around him and is very slow footed). Gibbs obviously saw these flaws and that is why he gave up so much for Brunell, to give Ramsey more time to develop.
I also think Ramsey will not want to resign with us when his contract is up. I think Ramsey feels he deseved the starting job and has been cheated out of it. As much as Ramsey respects Gibbs, he might want to prove him wrong with another team for demoting him now.
With that in mind, if Ramsey has huge trade value now, it might be worth at least hearing what other teams would give up for him. If he does not resign with us when his contract is up, what good is developing him into a star QB and losing him for nothing.

Lets see how much faith Gibbs instils in his players. I think now that we have Gibbs players will want to play for us and think we have a good chance of winning. Ramsey is in a good position to show everyone what it means to be a Redskin. I hope he does.

As well as coping with all the draft rumours which make it to this side of the Atlantic, I now find myself having to cope with all you lot making up your own trade/draft scenarios too! I particularly chuckle at the monster 5 players/draft spots each side which seem to be appearing as people pluck names out of a hat to see who can outdo who. I am now at the point of ignoring any further speculation as 99% of it will come to nothing anyway, so there's no point in worrying about it. Everyone just calm down and have faith!!!

Silent1903,
I assume you are from England (correct me if I am wrong) or another small country near there . With all the tabloid press you have in England, I would think you would be used to rumors and exaggerations.
No need to get upset, we are just discussing different hypothetical draft scenarios.
