RAIDERS NOT IN THE HUNT FOR CULPEPPER

A league source tells us that, despite increasing reports and speculation that the Vikings are poised to ship quarterback Daunte Culpepper to the Oakland Raiders, the Raiders are not in the hunt for Culpepper.

Although it's believed that the Raiders made an inquiry at some point after word of the Vikings' initial efforts to trade Culpepper came to light, the Raiders have not made an offer and are not among the "finalists" to land the three-time Pro Bowler with the three torn knee ligaments.

At this point, it's not entirely clear who the candidates are. Obvious possibilities are any team with a potential need at the starting quarterback position -- the Dolphins, the Jets, the Ravens, the Cowboys, the Lions, the Saints, the Rams, and the Cardinals.

Our money is still on the Rams, with Culpepper being shipped in St. Louis for current starter Marc Bulger, and maybe a pick or two.

damn I was kinda hoping the Gab and 3rd and Daunta and the 6 would be nice. Hey Jimi, do you know what time today we need to be in cap compliance?

Apparently is was all a ruse to get Kerry to restructure, So once Kerry agreed to lower his 2006 salary from $10.25 million to $7.75 million we pulled out of the Culpepper derby.

Interesting.... But I hear some other news on that...?

of course not!!! FUUUKKKKK!!!

Why would we do anything to better our team?? Let's just keep signing washed up Veteran Qb's and never develop anyone or get a top tier QB.

I'm tired of this ****.

Good riddance to this rumor. I want Collins dumped and us spending money elsewhere.....I'd rather persue Abraham for that type of money.
