Last season was such an abomination in nearly every way that I'm not sure player assessments, accurate ones, can be made.
That said... it certainly appeared to me Ramsey had fallen off. Trying to do too much due to the team's collapse? Possible, I suppose... but I doubt it. In Ramsey's case I think a little of the fall off was visible even in 2021... our SB run. NOT that he played badly overall in 2021... not at all. Brief lapses... but I think maybe telling.
In the end...
I'm not upset with the trade in that it was probably time... better now than 'too late'. I AM worried about filling his shoes. And as for his attitude...
I don't know... I can see how he could have been locker room poison but I do NOT know that was the case. I think McVay, and Co., do a good job of controlling that type of thing.
Only thing that stands out to be, as far as decline, is he cannot play man nearly as well as he used to. And yes, the falloff did start in 2021.
In some ways he had godo aspects improve in 2022, as PFF does point out. But when your CB gives up 6 or 7 TDs, most in man, it's an issue.
And in late in '21, too.
Of course he's better than those left and better than most in the NFL...it's just that they saw the decline and the salary was high and things not
headed in a right direction - put the money in guys getting better, Jones, etc...
I think we will know more in Miami, about how he does. He's with Fangio and we will see if still has "it".
