32. Strangely, Ramsey declined in yards per attempt also
He was above average for a rookie at 6.8, then fell to 6.4 and last year 6.1.: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/RamsPa00.htm The reference point is generally 7.0, above that considered very good.

That's very odd for a player progressing to his 2nd and 3rd year. It lends some credence to the the theory Gibbs' offensive system just isn't up to contemporary NFL standards, looking downfield first. I always thought Ramsey had a good arm but too line drive prone. Not enough variety of pace and loft. That was evident even at Tulane. The kid from Auburn can throw every type of pass but he tended to lock onto his intended receiver in college.
