Maybe I'm reading too much into your comment, david, but calling him a young Bledsoe is a severe disservice to Bledsoe.
...big gun, poor short passer and slow footed. Ramsey's biggest problem is that he is young and was horribly mismanaged by Spurrier. If he would have had BP as his first coach he may more than just the damaged goods he is right now.
At this stage in his career he flinches everytime he sees a blitz and the opposing DC's know that.
The biggest difference between Bledsoe and Ramsey is a significant amount of experience and much better coaching. Ramsey has only really known Spurrier while Bledsoe has had both BP and Belichick.
Obviously I feel that given the right coaching and development Ramsey could be something. He shares an incredible trait with Bledsoe, he hangs in there and takesthe big shots while trying to make the throws.
If you had a chance to see his last season with Spurrier you would have seen a QB just trying to make it through the game with his head still on his shoulders. There was no such thing as protection for this kid in the FSU 4 wide alignments at Washington.
He nows throws too many interceptions and puts the ball on the ground too much to be a #1 QB. With some remedial coaching he could be a good QB IMO.
