Peyton Ramsey: Potential late round developmental QB prospect from the Big Ten

I came across this site yesterday. It has a nice breakdown on pretty much every QB eligible for the 2021 draft. We are all familiar with the ones at the top of the list so I decided to focus on the less heralded prospects. I was slightly intrigued with #10. 

Northwestern_logo.gif Peyton Ramsey, QB, Northwestern
Height: 6-2. Weight: 220.
Projected 40 Time: 4.77.
Projected Round (2021): 5-7.

2/23/21: Ramsey was a gutsy signal-caller who pushed his team to the Big Ten Championship in 2020. He flashed a quality arm with passing ability as a senior, but also threw the ball well as a sophomore and junior. Over the past three seasons, Ramsey was held back by a lack of talent at receiver, but he was a steadily productive player for the Wildcats. Ramsey could be a solid backup quarterback in the NFL.

Ramsey scored a 30 on his Wonderlic test, and that would have put him among the top-three scoring quarterbacks in the 2020 NFL Draft class. Teams like Ramsey's intangibles and intelligence.

I've never seen this guy play. I'm sure some of you have. Apparently he is an intelligent guy (based on his school pedigree and Wonderlic score) who isn't working with NFL caliber talent at the skill positions. Yet, he was productive in college. If we have to roll with Teddy in 2021, is this the type of guy you take a chance on in the mid to late rounds (4-7) if he's available?  Rhule didn't have the most talented roster last year, but I think his coaching had a lot to do with us being competitive in nearly every game we played in 2020. It doesn;t appear so far that Will Grier is going to ever impact our team...and his was picked by the former GM. Could Rhule and the rest of our staff Possibly groom Ramsey and make him a capable QB in the NFL? Even if he never starts, he could be trade bait later. Thoughts?

If the guy we want isn't available at 8, I'd love to take a late-round flyer on this guy. I think he may surprise some folks. And his name is Peyton, not Patrick. 

Have you actually seen this guy play? If so, feel free to share your thoughts on him.

I apologize again for the name mishap.

I vaguely remember us having a teenage Redskins fan who was obsessed with Patrick Ramsey on here for a while. Kid annoyed the hell out of everybody.

We were set to play against them and he wound up making a bet that there was no way we'd sack Ramsey. If we did, he'd leave the board.

I think we sacked him on like the third play of the game 😆

    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
    • Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
