Merged: Getting Daunte Culpepper/Trading for Daunte

[Bjorn]

Culpepper for Ricky.

Someone might have already thought of this, but this idea just hit me. It might seem a little out there but if you think Daunte is coming off major knee surgery and most likely will not be ready to play when the season begins. They also need a running back and Ricky could be someone they might be interested in. I think this trade is very possible even though it probably won't ever happen. Give me your thoughts.

no

Why trade a proven runner for a guy who will never return to old form?

 

[Disgustipate]

I'd like to point out there is a forum for this, in ADDITION to a thread on this topic where this exact premise was brought up, which as of my viewing was RIGHT UNDER THIS THREAD.

 

[SQuinn17]

nope

 

[tylerdolphin]

Why in the world would th Vikings even consider that?
People on this board over-rate Ricky so bad it makes me sick.

A Pro-Bowl, MVP caliber QB for a good RB. LOL
I understand he has knees issues, but with modern medicine he will be just as goos as ever

I would think this was possible about a month and a half ago. But since Scott L. left I dont think Daunte would have any reason to be here.

Overrate Ricky? If the guy started all 16 games, he would have a 1500+ yard season. The guy is money... He left as one of the best backs in football, and returned as such. The only downfall to Ricky is age... If he were 25, he would have incredible value...

You know this how? Did your magic 8-ball tell you so? I just need something a little more concrete then "a guy who will never return to old form"

 

[TRUDOLFAN54]

If you have a Pro-Bowl QB, would you really trade him for a Running Back that has a bad history?

 

[DeathStar]

wtf.

enough with this stupid threads.

 

[GcOe]

I Wouldnt Be Surprised If Daunte Career Is Over>>>> His Knee Is Just As Bad As Mcgahee Wus Its Destroyed He Probably Cant Play Till Next Season

 

[SR 7]

Ricky and our 1st pick for Daunte

Im willing to do that, but I dont know how anyone else would feel about that

No way! someone posted earlier that they said on ESPN i believe taht Daunte will NOT be ready for the openeing season of 06.
