You have got to be kidding.  We traded Ramsey for CJ Henderson and K'Lavon Chaisson.  You think that was a great move?  A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

I think what he was referring to was the fact that we got 2 first round picks for the guy. That was a good haul. The problem was that the front office squandered those those picks by reaching on bad players/fits when almost everyone on this board was in agreement at the time that we should've chosen Tristan Wirfs and Justin Jefferson with our 2020 first round selections. In actuality, the selections we received in the Ramsey deal were used on K'Lavon Chaisson, Travis Etienne and Jordan Smith. It's not like that's much better though. The problem wasn't the actual trade itself, it was who the front office chose with those picks. Chaisson has been a bust, Etienne got hurt with probably the worst non-life threatening injury a skill position player could suffer and Smith doesn't even see the field. A competent front office could've turned those picks into something really good.
