I can think of a number of reasons.
The one you suggested.
Brunell's knee doesn't look so good.
Wants something for Patrick right before draft.
Wants cap settled one way or another before making move.
Has second thoughts about needs for backups at QB.
Has something against giving talent away for nothing.

I don't see how or why we would keep Ramsey. We're paying three QB's starter's salaries. Brunell, Ramsey and Campbell. That's not good money managment. Saving 1.7 million and using it for something else would be smart. I do agree, however, that we should get value for him when we trade him and not settle for a 5th pick. A 2nd or 3rd pick would be great, but a 4th and some young devolopmental players may not be a bad trade either.
Besides, we've already signed Casey Bramlet in January and from what I can tell, he'll be the emergency third stringer as he was in Cincinnati, where he was drafted.

Anybody else have this feeling we'll be discussing what a stupid move this was in another year?
Oh well. I wish Ramsey the best. Nobody can say he didn't handle himself with alot of class here and give a great effort.

You started another thread with the same title a few lines below:

Even somebody that is not a mod can be bothered when your big ego does not allow you to post on an existing thread but open up a new one under your name.
Then you cry foul when your threads are moved or merged!
Daniel Snyder has defined incompetence, failure and greed to true Washington Redskins fans for over a decade and a half. Stay away from football operations !!!

From ESPN
The Redskins have given quarterback Patrick Ramsey permission to visit the New York Jets, Detroit Lions and the Miami Dolphins as part of a possible trade.
Ramsey has been shopped in trade discussions over the past few weeks but the Redskins had been asking for a second-round pick. Now, he likely will be traded in the next week for a draft choice in the second day of the draft.
Ramsey is in New York visiting the Jets on Wednesday and is in the process of scheduling visits with the Lions and Dolphins.
A former first-round choice, Ramsey lost the Redskins starting quarterback job to Mark Brunell in the past two seasons under Joe Gibbs.
The Redskins are trying to develop first-round choice Jason Campbell into a starter this season so moving Ramsey will give Campbell a better chance to develop and get time in practice and in games.
