That's insane, we have to be trading away another big contract. Gurley maybe?
I don't think he's tradeable. This year would result in massive dead money and cap hit. Next year the cap hit becomes kind of manageable, but you are asking another team to take on a ton of guaranteed money for a RB with some kind of knee issue.

We just bought a beautiful - gorgeous! - house 20% above market in a rundown neighborhood right before a recession.

Ok. It is pretty though.

Wowzers. I hope this acquisition boosts our D, and I think it will. Being able to play man will be huge. I'm so sick of seeing DBs 7-8 yards off the LOS. It's just ridiculous.

We'll see. If Ramsey works out, it might well be worth it. The guy can flat out cover, and he's a much better fit for Wade's D.

Yeah I'm warming up to signing Ramsey now seeing that he's an ideal fit to Wade's scheme. Expect a Von Miller type impact in the secondary with him on the roster.

36 mill in Goff, 17 mill on Gurley, 25 mill on AD, 16 mill cooks, 15+ on Ramsey?
Looks like the early 2000s all over again.

Hell yeah!!!!! Well played!!!! Yeah, first rounders are a tad over rated if they are the 20-32 picks.

RoD on Peters's PFF grades: lolol PFF is a joke

RoD on Ramsey's PFF grades: fuck yeah breh he elite

I've personally always liked PFF, I think it tells a lot beyond what the stats say. Regardless I've been watching Ramsey since he was a 'Nole and the guy is just different. ESPECIALLY for a scheme that should be playing man coverage. No more of this 10+ yards off zone bullshit.

Totally against it. Next year is his option year. Since we gave up two 1st we have to extend him. He and his agent know that so the price just went up. I will be amazed if we can avoid cap hell. My guess is say good bye to Littleton and Johnson.

That's a tremendous price. I hope he's worth it. It's his diva attitude that has me worried. He's under contract this year and next year.

Well this gives Wade his shutdown press man coverage CBs in Ramsey and Long. It also means Whit is definitely gone next year.

Love Ramsey but don't love the trade. 2 first rounders is too much considering our needs going foward. Plus I'm not sure he will be as effective in Wade's scheme. Yes I know that's blasphemy to some but the results have been what they are.
Agreed

True.
The dead money on Goff, Gurley, Donald makes it impossible.

Those are the reasons I want him. He's the best cornerback in the NFL. He's a future HOFer if he continues on his path.

I just hope that we can re-sign him. If we have to give up someone like Cooks, Havenstein, or Gurley, that's fine by me.

If we can sign him to a long term deal, I ain’t even mad. I’m ok with giving up more than a first round pick for a proven first round talent. Two firsts is a pretty steep price to pay for any player in this league not named Aaron Donald but, gotta pay to play.
