Our best player, never voted by his peers to be a Captain. That says all we need to know about his presence here. He was liked as a teammate and a dude on the team, but players didn't respect him and didn't see him lead to vote him as a Captain. Telvin was, Poz was, Campbell is, Fournette is, Foles is. I know Telvin may be an outlier because of him quitting on the team this year, but his situation was a little different (so it seems).

I was really hesitant to getting rid of Ramsey, but to the point of this section, he may have truly been a negative effect on our culture being built. #SeeYaAndYourBadBack....

We don't know this for sure but I have a feeling he may have had an influence on Telvin and Yan and possibly Fournette. There definitely seems to have been a vibe of "me first" from those guys for a while. Fournette appears to have gotten past it a bit and probably Yan too but I think when people look back on it, trading Ramsey while not necessarily a positive, might be looked at as a start of the culture change Sexton was talking about.
