Was part of the championship DT rotation with Patterson and Cody...

Was part of the championship DT rotation with Patterson and Cody...

Ironically, he didn't get to start until his senior year because he was stuck behind Patterson...

He's a pass rushing one gap style DT. When he finally got to start he showed some real explosiveness and ability to pressure the passer. He needs to bulk up and get stronger against the run. Since Hollis Thomas was traded to the Saints, Ed Jasper is here on a one year deal and Grasmanis seems to have fallen out of favor... Ramsey is here for depth and hopefully to develop into a more complete DT.

I just don't see Ramsey actually getting a roster spot.

I just don't see Ramsey actually getting a roster spot.

Why not? Hollis is gone, Grasmanis is probably gone, Jasper is gone next year, & Marshall is a just a body.

If the team carries 5 DTs, Ramsey will make the practice squad and be slotted to fill the hole Jasper creates next year.

Bunkley, Patterson, Walker, Jasper, & Rayburn(who isn't a given to make the team IMO) are your DTs. With injuries Ramsey could certainly get a spot.

Philly Forever already has him going to the HOF

I see Ramsey on the PS, thats about it.  Even Spewdaro calls him a project.

He'll wind up being this the Norman Lejeune/David Bergeron of 2006. He'll either hang around the PS all year, or will get cut, only to sign on a team with horrible defense.

speaking of Norm, did anyone else realize he was in Miami last year with Labinjo?  I found that bit of useless information intereresting.

LaJuan is a girl's name.

Just saw this about Rod Wright 

For example, it turns out that Texas DT Rod Wright, who fell all the way to the 7th round at this weekend's draft, has a torn rotator cuff in his right shoulder that will require surgery. In fact, Wright didn't even know himself about the injury which showed up on a x-ray taken at the combine in February.

David Bergeron. Didn't think I'd be seeing that name again on here. The face, certainly, but not the name.
