That's cause Ramsey had the will to get better, plus, he's got one of hell of a QB coach.(and I'm talking about the head coach)

I said way back when we drafted him , i believe we were HQ still at that point, that Ramsey was the best out of the bunch. I think all three are going to do very well, but Ramsey had more of an upswing than Harrington and Carr.

Oh boy, I'm just glad Doug Johnson wasn't part of this class, because someone would have pimped him and his accuracy for sure.

My vote: Ramsey, hands down

I don't like Harrington that much but I think Carr would have done as well as Ramsey had he been playing here and not in Houston.

Don't everybody forget, Ramsey has a much better offensive team arround him right now. Carr and Harrington will both be real good QB's. They just need some help arround them to allow them to get more comfortable and gain some confidence.

To be fair, Ramsey plays with a much better team. Andre Johnson and Charles Rogers will be very good players one day, but they're not at the level of a Laveranues Coles. Nor does either team have a #2 of Rod Gardner's level. Nor do they have tailbacks as talented as ours.

To me, the reason I'm so pleased with Ramsey v. Carr and Harrington is threefold:

a] Ramsey has started far fewer games than the other two;
b] Ramsey costs a lot less than the other two;
c] We got Ramsey for the 32nd pick after trading down twice. That's good value!

LMAO on this one.

Both Carr and Harrington were flashy boys in school... big money guys who had a team tailored for them and a system written for their strengths. Ramsey, no the other hand, was the sign of a tough blue collar guy who spent more time on the carpet then anything (and STILL managed over 4,000 yards senior year).

Im glad the FO saw this diamond in the rough.

This is not a knock on Ramsey at all but also look at the talent Ramsey has around him compared to Carr and Harrington who are both relying on rookie WRs.

Ramsey had a a more QB friendly offensive system in college then both Harrington and Carr.
