Unless I'm mistaken, he'll be a RFA after this season and they have a pile of money tied up in Vick. They obviously wouldn't have to let him go yet, but they might me tempted to.Probably wont happen. Vick is too injury prone for Atlanta to let him go in my opinion.
That's the cost of having a running QB. If they're smart they keep him. They'll need a good backup anyway and Schaub is likely to be cheaper than the other options and knows the offense.Unless I'm mistaken, he'll be a RFA after this season and they have a pile of money tied up in Vick.

Lets see:Younger? checkNo way Schaub should command a 1st rounder if Culpepper could be had for a 2nd rounder........
Either way, I don't think it will be easy to get him out of Atlanta. I would bet the second he can leave, he will. It must be hard watching a guy play that you know you are better than......
So that's why Patrick Ramsey's worth a 1st rounder?Lets see:Younger? checkNo way Schaub should command a 1st rounder if Culpepper could be had for a 2nd rounder........

MUCH MUCH cheaper? check
Not coming off a devestating knee injury? check
The third reason combined with the second is why Schaub is worth more than Pepper.

true, but he only has to watch Detmer play in practiceNo way Schaub should command a 1st rounder if Culpepper could be had for a 2nd rounder........

LOL @ "need it answered." What's needed is improvement on your analysis. A player's worth is measured by more than the health of his knee and his age. I happen to like Shaub as a prospect, but that's all he is. Unlike Ramsey, he's not had the games to really demonstrate his abilities, and even Ramsey's considered raw at this point despite playing for twice as many years and roughly 10 times as many snaps and starts.If you really need that answered...So that's why Patrick Ramsey's worth a 1st rounder?Lets see:Younger? checkNo way Schaub should command a 1st rounder if Culpepper could be had for a 2nd rounder........

I wonder if some team really covetted him and then balked at the price. Went thru all last year thinking about it and now might just suck it up and cave to the high demand.No way Schaub should command a 1st rounder if Culpepper could be had for a 2nd rounder........
I'm going to side with Diesel here. Ramsey has already failed once as an NFL starter, whereas Schaub has looked great every step of the way. If I were an NFL GM then I'd definitely deal a first rounder for him.LOL @ "need it answered." What's needed is improvement on your analysis.

A trade of high draft picks for him at this point would seem silly in light of the market value for others out there who have an actual track record to look at. While Shaub may end up better, this looks a lot like the Scott Mitchell trade from Miami to Detroit prospectively.
Is Ramsey going to start for Washington? NoIs Ramsey going to backup Brunell? NoLOL @ "need it answered." What's needed is improvement on your analysis.

the simplest point is that once a team says they won't be keeping player X, his value goes down. There might be some superstar exception but....Ramsey will be given to some team. Schaub will have to be pried away.Is Ramsey going to start for Washington? NoIs Ramsey going to backup Brunell? NoLOL @ "need it answered." What's needed is improvement on your analysis.

Washington has no leverage to demand a 1st round pick for Ramsey, who has failed as a starter twice in this league.
Schaub is a crucial backup for ATL who has succeeded in his opportunities to be a #1 guy. He is younger, and looks to be more talented than Ramsey.
If you cant see why Schaub would demand a higher pick, I dont know what to say...
