Jay Glazer, of FOXSports.com, reports the Minnesota Vikings are looking to grant QB Daunte Culpepper's trade request. Team officials have reportedly gotten upset with the quarterback's public gripes and refusal to work with head coach Brad Childress. If the Vikings are unable to trade Culpepper before he is due a $6 million roster bonus, they intend to ask him to push back the bonus date in order to continue to work towards a trade.

Guess he tried to speak to Pep before Pep spoke to him.

Maybe he absolutely knows he's too stupid to run Childress's offense.

But he can "get his roll on" like nobody's business.

I hate seeing him do that...but its fun as hell to do yourself. Especially after taking a huge dump.

I feel bad for Childress. He had to deal with a crazy Owens. Then in his first gig as a HC, his QB pull similar shtein.

I bet he ends up in Miami.

I wonder what the Viking fans are thinking about this?

Will Minny now go after Drew Brees?

Vikings not passing up Culpepper trade

(March 9, 2006) -- The Minnesota Vikings have a deal in place to trade quarterback Daunte Culpepper, team officials confirmed Thursday. The trade is imminent, with the deal expected to go through Friday, just before the start of free agency.
Where Culpepper is going is the biggest mystery in the league. As of now, it is not Oakland. The Raiders and Vikings spoke Thursday, but Oakland is trying to gauge whether or not it wants to try to match, or beat, the other teams' offer. It will spend Thursday night mulling its decision.

   
Daunte Culpepper couldn't get along with the new regime in Minnesota.     
But the Vikings have made it clear that they have found a suitable trade partner, with suitable compensation, and now Culpepper and the Vikings each will get their wish. They will part ways, leaving on more bitter terms than wide receiver Randy Moss left Minnesota last season.

Culpepper could not get along with new Vikings coach Brad Childress, and the quarterback has upset various members of the organization with what they feel is his immature behavior. Their relationship, by all accounts, will end Friday. But the only ones who knows where Culpepper's next relationship will resume are the Vikings and their trading partner.

Teams in need of quarterbacks include Miami, New Orleans, Detroit, the New York Jets, the Baltimore Ravens and the Oakland Raiders, who still have not released Kerry Collins, even if it has been reported that they have.

Chances are, one of those places will be Culpepper's home this season.

Culpepper said Wednesday the Vikings were shopping him. While no team has been ruled out, teams that appear to be interested in Culpepper include the Miami Dolphins, the Baltimore Ravens and the Oakland Raiders.

I think Phreak got it right when he said Miami.....

[The BIGSTUD]

PFT.com thinks it's the Rams.

[Father Demon]

I was just going to say that.  A psuedo-connected guy I know to football stuff (mostly the Rams) said he heard Bulger for Culpepper....

[The BIGSTUD]

That's what they said.

Stay tuned.  Our guess (and it's only a guess) is that it'll be the Rams, and we predict that current starter Marc Bulger will be part of the package that gets sent to the Vikings.
