QB situation is about as bad as it can get

and yet...


"So the answer is . . . Trent Green?

Trent Green, who is almost 37, and who missed much of last season because of a severe concussion. Trent was pretty good, once. Now, he's used up. Acquiring him (from Kansas City) could only feel more like recycling if the Dolphins found him sitting curbside in a plastic bin covered by cans and bottles.

Desperate Miami should sign Green if the price is right (say, a sixth-round pick), just in case, but the idea any coach would prefer Green over a healthy Culpepper, or see him as more than a one-season stopgap, is insane."

Miami sure showed a lot of insight by not taking a chance on the injured shoulder of Drew Brees and went with the safer choice in Culpepper.

Trade em.....so we can draft Brady Quinn bitches...

Culpepper isn't healthy, and likely won't be on the team when the season starts...

Does it really matter?

And if the Chiefs got that 2nd round pick, that would matter.

Sorry, I don't mean to disregard what you're saying here, just trying to be sensible.

Green with a broken leg could out-play Culsucker ....

Miami has repeatedly said they won't give more than a 6th. Green worth a second? Honestly maybe a couple years ago but not at his age now.

We gotta get back that 2nd we gave up for Surtain.

Thats pretty much the whole debate....Is Green really worth a 2nd? Probably not. How desperate is Miami for a veteran QB to fill in for a year or two? They will probably end giving more for Green than he is worth out of neccessity....

The answer is probably somewhere in between....if i had to guess: They give up a 3rd...

They gave up a second for Culpepper, they gave up a sixth or a fifth for Joey Freaking Harrington. Green is worth more than a sixth. I'd keep him on the roster rather than trade him for that.

fine ........ then we'll just keep him


and those bastards in Miami can run with Cleo Lemon

Dolphins | Culpepper injury update
Sat, 14 Apr 2007 07:45:21 -0700

Alex Marvez, of the Sun-Sentinel, reports Miami Dolphins QB Daunte Culpepper (knee) revealed Friday, April 13, that a second knee procedure to remove scar tissue in November required a four-to-six month period of recovery. Culpepper had started sprinting last month during offseason workouts but began experiencing soreness, which led to him being told to stop running. "I just visited my doctor and my knee is stable," Culpepper said. "It's just not to point where I can go full speed yet. That's just the process I'm going through. There's no doubt in my mind I'll be able to play. Just when is the question."

4 to 6 months from November is March or May. Sounds more like 6 to 8 months. Either way I doubt that they dump Culpepper or they really are stupid.
Culpepper probably starts the season on the PUP list. Daunte still has value when healthy. I think that the phins keep him at least for this season to try and recover something back out of him.

I never really liked him myself though.

Is there anymore "hot off the press" tidbits of juicy news that you want to share with us? Maybe any Ty Law updates? I hear Gunther Cunningham got fired and that Carl wants to replace him with Vermeil, but that's just a rumor, probably.
