Seriously though, you don't see Safety's drafted in the top 3 unless they are a top flight CB too, and from what I've seen Ramsey is not. For as long as I can remember I've never seen a DB go top 3 and I will guarantee you Chargers DO NOT draft Ramsey with the #3 overall pick.
I also think many of you are buying into the hype of Ramsey being the best since Woodson. lol they say that crap about a player EVERY YEAR.
without trading because we can't predict that.
1-Tunsil-They need a LT and there are reports that they are huge on Ramsey as well (if that happens Tunsil goes to SD for sure)
2-Goff-Still no reason to beleive they don't go QB
3-Ramsey-best player in the draft overall and fills a need
4-Wentz-reports are he's top three on their big board
5-Jack-this makes too much sense
6-Bosa-they've reported they they are big on Bosa and wouldn't let him get past them
7-Buckner-fills need BPA chip get's his recruit and he get's to work with his old roommate AA
it's not out of the realm AT ALL.
Like I said Ramsey was the first freshman to play CB at FSU since Sanders! dude can play both positions at a elite level.
here's what Rang said when he projected him to the Chargers
SAN DIEGO CHARGERS | #3 For nine seasons, Eric Weddle roamed the middle for San Diego, earning Pro Bowl nods three times. Despite his popularity, the Chargers opted to let Weddle walk in free agency, perhaps in part because the club saw Ramsey as a cheaper, younger and faster alternative. An Olympic-caliber athlete with instincts, size and physicality, Ramsey has starred all over the secondary and even at linebacker for the Seminoles, projecting best as a safety in the NFL.
Overview:
"It's rare to see defensive backs mentioned as worthy of the No. 1 overall selection in the NFL Draft, but Ramsey deserves it with his natural playmaking skills. He can play cornerback (inside or outside), but his best NFL fit is in a nickel or safety role.
As a true sophomore in 2014, he led the Seminoles with 14 passes defended and finished second on the team with 9.5 tackles for loss, adding 79 tackles, three sacks and two interceptions. Ramsey occasionally lined up as Florida State's starting free safety in 2014, also moving inside as the "big" nickel defender and showing his versatility as a cornerback and hybrid safety/linebacker.
Ramsey moved to boundary cornerback as a junior in 2015 and although he didn't record an interception, Ramsey led the Seminoles in passes defended (10) for the second straight season, earning First Team All-ACC honors."
Please tell me when a safety/CB get's compared to Woodson every year??
3 of the 5 analysis on CBS Sports have him going to the Chargers.....Brooks and jeremiah have him going to the Chargers as well.
I'm not saying they don't go Buckner but you make it sound like there's not a chance he goes the SD which is just silly given the need, lack of depth in the draft, and the star potential he brings.
