Default QB Patrick Ramsey deciding between NE and TEN

Per the Denver Post:

Quote:
Footnotes.

Former Broncos backup quarterback Patrick Ramsey is deciding whether to sign with New England or Tennessee...
Seems like he would have a better shot at being the primary backup in NE, unless Tennessee plans on getting rid of Vince Young.

That would seem like a no brainer to me...who would you rather throw to: Randy, Wes, Faulk; or That rookie last year and...I don't even know? I'd also go out on a limb and say that Tenn can't really afford to pay all that much to a QB given Young at #2...maybe they sign Ramsey and move Vince on draft day a la Manny and the sox? He does seem to fit the role of head case pretty well, I wouldn't say it is completely out of the question.

I could see if he had a better chance to start there, but maybe he does? Maybe Fisher told him I'm stuck with Young for a little, I'll let you play though if Collins sucks.

I mean, what else can it be? If he comes here he's the guy the second Brady goes down. If that happens, please god no, he'd be throwing to Moss, Faulk, Welker, Galloway, etc. It's a no brainer.

Would not mind him, would be a good back up and compete with O Connel

Hope he never sees the field in N.E.

He'd #3 wherever he goes.

Unless NE plans on getting rid of O'Connell, he has the same situation here as in Tenn.

If Brady goes down, it'll be O'Connell coming in, not Ramsey.

My guess is Ramsey would be for TC purposes (usually 4 QBs in TC) and then cut for the shadow roster.

I think that would be great if he came here; I consider Ramsey to be the best available QB remaining in free agency. I'm kind of surprised he's not looking at a team where he might have a chance to compete for a starting job (Vikings, Jets, Bucs, 49ers, Bears, etc.)

Really? Aren't Jeff Garcia and Byron Leftwich both still free agents? Either of them are better than Ramsey, especially Garcia.

There have to be a few teams for whom Leftwich and Garcia would be an upgrade over their starter (like the Bears).

Yeah, Garcia has always been a pretty good QB. He just can't seem to stay with one team for very long. I'd love to have him as a backup with the Pats.
