I think you are absolutely correct here, but this plays right into my "nobody in football knows anything" point. If they weren't looking for just some average guy to solve the QB issue, they should have picked at a different position. They weren't high enough to grab a stud.

Of course, same logic applies to the Campbell pick, however, we have to credit 25 teams, at least half of which needed a QB, for passing on him before we praise the Skins for a great pick.

Is he really that much better than Harrington?

I don't think very highly of either, but I just don't see that much of a difference.

Harrington has done so much to hurt the Lions that its safe to say they could have won about 2 games more each year just by replacing Joey with pretty much the run of the mill waiver wire QB.

Ramsey at least had skills that couldn't be duplicated by any old schmoe. He just wasn't ever going to be much more than he was.
