Ramsey Rumor Thread

[SmootSmack]

If Favre does retire, should the Packers be considered an option? Or are they just going to put all their focus and energy into Rogers?

And there's talk that the Lions may let Harrington go before his bonus is due in June. That could open the Detroit door again for Ramsey

[That Guy]

if the lions get kitna and mccown, i'm not sure they'd spend a draft pick on ramsey.

[Huddle]

Kitna is signed for four years.

Since he didn't visit them. I don't think Ramsey was interested in going there.

Mike Martz has his hands full. The receivers are not the precise route runners he likes and he has to build the O line.

The Bucs might work for Ramsey. Chris Simms doesn't look like a lock and he's only signed for one year.

[Huddle]

Maybe someone can answer this question.

I can't figure out why the Redskins don't give Jimmy Sexton permission to contact all the teams P. Ramsey might be interested in...with the exception of our NFC East rivals.

If reports are correct, he was given permission to contact only Miami, Detroit, and the Jets. Now Clayton says he's been given permission to visit the Bucs. Why restrict him to those teams?

There must be a good reason but I haven't figured it out. Can you?

the team has to ask the skins first. ramsey is the one that said no to cinncy.

the packers would probably look at mccown first if farve says no and he still hasn't signed.

Yes. I understand that the team has to ask the Skins first. My question was: Why don't the Skins give Jimmy Sexton permission to contact other teams of his choosing? What's the disadvantage if Ramsey's agent finds a trading partner?

I haven't heard about any interest from Cincinnati. Who reported that? Do you recall?

KFFL, ESPN, some others... maybe it was on clayton's blog. one of the analysts said his unwillingless to go to certain teams like rebuffing marvin lewis, was slowing down the process. the skins probably haven't put any limits on sexton, its just you only hear about the teams as they actually ask.

I read that the vikings would not allow Culpepper to canvass the market. My impression is that the Redskins were doing the same with Ramsey. But maybe I'm mistaken.

nah, i think its more ramsey thinking he couldn't start so he wouldn't want to go... the skins have no real reason to oppose his trade.

They have the weapons. Given doubt on Palmer's knee, Ramsey could do worse if he's only committed for one year.

Marvin Lewis had a good look at Patrick, so he knows what he's getting.

Ramsey is not going to start anywhere at this point. His only hope is that he learns a new system and the starter gets hurt sometime next year. Of the teams that have been mentioned in this thread as trading partners, the Jets are his best chance of starting. He is not going to beat out Culpepper in Miami or Palmer in Cinncy. If the Jets draft a Leinart or a Young or a Cutler, there is no guarrentee that those guys would be opening day starters. He may beat out Pennington in a Preseason contest.

breess daunte and palmer are all still crippled at this point. there are doubt as to any of them actually starting the season right now.

KFFL: Detroit has signed McCown to compete with Kitna.
