AS RAMSEY VISITS JETS, ARE TRADE WINDS BLOWING?
Just because Chad Pennington renegotiated his deal with the Jets doesn’t mean New York is settled on its starting quarterback for next season. In a sign that the club may trade for back up help, Patrick Ramsey visited the team’s complex this week.
As Mark Brunell emerged as a solid option this year, the former Redskins’ QB became more expendable. Previously, Washington was asking for a second or third round pick in exchange for Ramsey, but the price is expected to be lower as the team currently lacks leverge.
Meanwhile, the Jets could still forego a trade and use the fourth pick in this April’s NFL draft on a quarterback. Vanderbilt’s Jay Cutler has wowed scouts in combines so far. Whoever is helming New York’s offensive attack, don’t waste a fantasy pick on him.
