Ramsey for Abraham

[skinsfanthru&thru]

How the heck did Randy's name suddenly become involved with the trade rumors? The finacial cost and stupidity of that move would be enormous.

The Star Ledger newspaper in New Jersey reported the subject of Phillip Rivers and Ramsey were on the short list of the Jets. The article mentioned Lavar and Abraham and it also discussed how the Jets have shared a history with the Redskins going back to some guy named John Riggins. I think anything is possible and for the right money Abraham or somebody else will play for the Redskins.

If I'm the Jets I'm going after Rivers over Ramsey any day.

MOney wise yeah he makes ense since his cap hit and contract are better situations. But then your trading something,, probably of pretty good value, for something completely unproven. At least Ramsey has shown that he can do the job giving the right circumstances.

Yea the chrgrs are going to want a boat load of cash to off set that 14 mil signing bonus.lavar has got to stay, i believe that he's about to embark on the best part of his career.. randy would cost us and is our best guard.and with dockery still somewhat of a question mark in short yardage. i don't think you get rid of your best guard like that.if we had traded for fonoti like i wanted them to then that could have been a possiblity.but the 42 yr old is gone next year and that leaves us with very questionable depth behind thomas and dockery.

Why on earth would the Redskins consider trading Randy Thomas to the Jets? The skins are trying to build a cohesive OL which only comes from playing together. Why would they want to start over next year and rip apart the center of the line. That trade is nonsense and wishful thinking by the jets.

If the Jets want to work out something involving Ramsey and Abraham that's one thing, but lay off Randy Thomas...

Thank you.

It looks like Ramsey for Abraham might not be so ridiculous as some of you thought after all. It seems not many people are interested in him. That would drive his value down. They cannot keep him at that cap figure.

Texans | Team reportedly not interested in Abraham

Mark Cannizzaro, of the New York Post, reports someone close to Houston Texans general manager Charlie Casserly said the Texans have "no interest" in trading for New York Jets franchised DE John Abraham. "In fact, I spoke to a lot of people in Indianapolis (at the NFL Combine) who said they won't go near Abraham," the person said.

he's whiny and there's no way we take him, cause we don't have enough money to afford a full roster right now, much less take on an 8mill contract.

its not happening.

gotta trade ramsey for a draft pick, we have no cap space and we need a cheap rookie that can hopefully provide a little depth

yup

[dmek25]

without a cba,does the draft stay the same next year?

I still say a deal will get done. I also think it will come after the blood bath tonight. After a bunch of veterans hit the market with nowhere to sign they will start putting presure on the NFLPA to get a deal done. And then the players we want we can resign and the players we dont, we wont

hopeful thinking, that's not a bet i'd make though. once players are cut the cap hit is taken and resigning them would be a second hit (and even at vet min, we couldn't get them all back because of that).

*** INTENTIONAL POT STIRRING ALERT ***
I don't see Ramsey restructuring his contract like Brunell did.. Where's his committment to the greater good of the team?!?
