    Don't worry, we'll get to play against him twice a year for the next decade. :disappointed:

    Terry McCormick isn't the most accurate guy but he says there's no connection between us and Vernon right now.

    Another reason I want Ramsey. Don't want him going to a rival and abusing us for a decade.

    But we don't need a guy who is DE in a 4-3 scheme and we already have 2 starters, right? We don't need to pay 12+mill for a backup. Using your logic when arguing against taking Bosa at No.1

    Ambushing us? Ramsey had 3 career INT's in college. In contrast, Brian Randolph has been UT's most consistent defensive player for the past 4 seasons, and had 8 career INT's...including one against Bama in a near upset, this past year. Yet, he gets practically no press.

    People here keep talking like Ramsey is the next Woodson. I'm not buying it. Seems overhyped because he is a native Nashville kid.

    Where did you get ambushing from?

    You do realize a CB completely shutting down an opponents #1 WR is just as important and ints right? Considering everyone in the division except us has a #1 WR, getting someone who can line up across from them would be smart.

    I swear you don't think about what you say. His ints really aren't relevant to the conversation.

    When did I say pay him $12 million? I would like him as a backup but at a certain price.

    Keep grasping for straws buddy. You'll just keep swinging and missing

    Don't draft number 1 overall for depth. That's the dumbest thing anyone could do. #1 overall is for franchise players.

    INT's are indeed important. They are often used as a measuring stick for a DB's value. Guys who are true shutdown corners tend to get their share of INT's when teams throw their way. Same thing goes for a Free Safety. They are usually facing the QB and are able to break on the ball more easily than a CB. Ramsey played both, and only had 3 INT's. If he had a bunch, we all know you'd be using that statistic to bolster his draft stock.
