Well, Spurrier is a great developer of QB's...on the college level. He is simply not used to the difference in intensity at the NFL level.

I do agree that he should try to develop Ramsey, but they do need solid backups. I would try to draft Banks or Dorsey (who is a Spurrier-type QB). If they trade Davis, they are gonna need to come up with a running game. Although it always got overshadowed at UF, his QB only excelled because they had a strong running game.

Also, whoever said the O-line is important is right too. A QB is only as good as the line that protects him. If the line is gonna suck, he needs to look for a scrambler.

All in all, I don't think Spurrier was really prepared for the NFL. If he thinks that 2 okie-doke QB's from NCAA football are gonna propel a team to an NFL championship, he will be sorely disappointed.

Rex Grossman S-U-C-K-S under pressure. He cannot scramble. He gets nervous easily. He can throw and he is VERY accurate, but not with the Washington line protecting him.
