Title: Um, who is the Dolphins emergency QB this week? Post by: Pappy13 on December 01, 2010, 12:02:59 pm I can't find his name. I'm assuming it's the guy on the practice squad right now?

They just released him to make room for Merling.Title: Re: Um, who is the Dolphins emergency QB this week? Post by: Phishfan on December 01, 2010, 12:59:51 pm I hadn't seen that yet. I guess at this point, there isn't one unless the activate the practice squad kid.

Title: Re: Um, who is the Dolphins emergency QB this week? Post by: Frimp on December 01, 2010, 01:42:14 pm I think they let Ramsey go in favor of the other guy because he's younger, and possily groom him for the future in case something happens with Henne. He's an undrafted rookie I think.

He's an undrafted rookie I think. He was with the Bronco's last year although I'm not sure whether he was drafted or not and I'm not sure if he actually made it to the roster or just the practice squad.Title: Re: Um, who is the Dolphins emergency QB this week? Post by: Frimp on December 01, 2010, 03:35:12 pm Oh. Well then why let Ramsey go and keep this guy? I thought he was a rookie this year.
Title: Re: Um, who is the Dolphins emergency QB this week? Post by: mecadonzilla on December 01, 2010, 06:04:36 pm Ramsey's been around too long to put on the practice squad. The only reason why Brandstater's still around is because they can stash him on the practice squad until needed.
Title: Re: Um, who is the Dolphins emergency QB this week? Post by: Pappy13 on December 01, 2010, 06:06:05 pm Well he's about as close to being a rookie as you can get. Ramsey is an old vet that was really brought in just in case he had to play right away. Now that Henne is back starting and Thigpen is backing him up, the 3rd guy is for emergencies only so it can be some guy that you are trying to groom. He's probably getting paid next to nothing too which they probably had to pay Ramsey more simply because he's been in the league awhile.
It all makes sense, I'm just wondering if anyone knows anything about him. I didn't even know his name, had to hunt it down. |
