Jalen Ramsey - Debate the pick

[AzorAhai]

I agree, but I don't know anyone in the SD front office, so I don't really know what the FO wants. Maybe you caught an interview I missed, I don't know, but often fans have *some* insight into what the FO wants.

I think their fans are like ours and most just don't like Buckner. They also see Tunsil there with two OTs who could be massively upgraded from with Tunsil. Thing is, reports have said that having both Dunlap and Barksdale signed to long deals is pushing the team away from Tunsil. And I don't know how the Chargers use their visits, but Ramsey wasn't even brought in for one. Buckner and Tunsil were, so maybe that's another sign pointing away from Ramsey.

Seriously, it's one of the worst "highlight" videos I've seen. 90% of it is him giving up completions and coming up to make the tackle

He will fit right in with our secondary then! No wonder we like him!

 

[Bigdog]

I can't seem to wrap my head around why SD will take Ramsey over Tunsil, but I think that's where their fans are leaning. If so, gonna be a lot of shocked people here

They lost Weddle in FA so they could go Ramsey but I am with you. They need to protect Rivers.

 

[Gaede]

Don't like it.

He's like the inverse of Bosa for me. I like Ramsey, the person and athlete, but I don't like Ramsey the player--mostly because he doesn't have an actual position. I like Bosa, the player and position, but I don't like Bosa the person

Good post.

When I watched FSU play ramsey was an impact player mostly as a Blitzer and run defender. But he was impactful. In the league I wonder how much of that game translates. Don't see us blitzing a safety or corner 10 times a game. I think he plays like a strong safety. Maybe Garrett has a genius approach to the pass rush. Blitz ramsey....

 

[conner01]

Oh with out a doubt.


Bosa & co. only have a chance if we trade out.

If we stay at pick 4 it will be Ramsey or Zeke.

That's my thinking at 4, Zeke or Ramsey
If they trade out I would think depending on how far that would be Zeke, Buckner, Bosa

 

[Rogerthat12]

Brugler on the draft show is saying he thinks they are going with Buckner. He and Broaddus showed to have some good sources/guesses last year during the draft. They also think it is between ramsey & zeke at 4.

I watched the show but word is the Chargers GM is not saying and they are possibly torn between Tunsil and Ramsey, time will tell.

This keeps being brought up "Ramsey to replace Weddle". Thing is though, they signed Dwight Lowery in FA.

 

[Fredd]

Ramsey has been my favorite guy in the draft for a while...IF they choose to use him at safety along with Jones...

I forgot about that

My debate is in my sig. He will not be a great corner.

 

[Western]

He is not even in the same league as Ed Reed, Troy Polamalu, or Sean Taylor.

Heck Sean Taylor had 10 interceptions in one season at the U, & likewise, Ed Reed had 9 interceptions in one season at the U.
Those guys were game changers in college, big-time hitters, had timely interceptions, were team leaders, & were finalists for post-season awards - such as the Jim Thorpe Award.
And those guys were picked below #4 in their respective drafts.

Pick #4 requires impact football players & game changers - not athletes who can run around the defensive backfield chasing slot receives.

Thank u. And Eric Berry had like 13 in 3 years at Tennessee. Lets face it, Ramsey has bad hands. He's not a game change . Herm Edwards got in his face and told him he needs to catch the ball to make a difference not deflections. Most his highlights are deflections and tackles. Catching the ball creates turnovers, deflections gives the ball back to the offense.

 

[pupulehaole]

What member of the Cowboys organization told you Ramsey is most likely the choice?

Well he is #1 on our big board so I'm guessing if hes there he will be the pick.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

Tunsil, Ramsey, Elliot, Buckner, Bosa...nice problem to have. There is one in particular that leaps off the screen at you.

 

[BermyStar]

I forgot about that

Yeah I lot sight of it for a bit too, because I spent most of my time analyzing San Diego's draft needs reading what I could on Bolts From the Blue. It is more insightful then guessing but at the end of the day they're fans just like I am.

 

[Hardline]

We don't know if Ramsey is #1 on the Cowboys board. No one has seen it.

 

[RoboQB]

50/50 he will be a Cowboy.The Chargers are not a big fan of Jerry,they may trade that pick to somebody who wants JR.

Did you just suggest that a team would trade the 3rd pick overall just to spite Jerry?... smh... I think we're all going nuts... hang in there, buddy.

 

[StarBoyz83]

The main reason I can see Ramsey being the pick is this is most likely Carr and mo's last year.

no,i am suggesting the chargers will take below market value to trade down.
