NFL Network's Adam Schefter reports the Rams would be interested in Daunte Culpepper if he's released. They will not make a trade offer.

Jacksonville and Baltimore are also mentioned as potential suitors, and the Jags reportedly held a conference on Thursday to discuss the possibility of bringing Culpepper aboard. If the Ravens make a move for Daunte, it'd be bad news for rookie Troy Smith, who hasn't impressed this offseason.

Too bad we can't get Rams to bite on a trade. I can see him going to Jacksonville since he wouldn't have to move far, they have instability at QB but not enough that the pressure's solely on him. Baltimore, would be if he takes a min salary as a backup to McNair. Best option for us is to see if Oakland will want him to start while Russell develops and enough for them to make trade feelers. The lack of teams willing to trade even a 7th rounder just tells you how bad Culpepper's been.
 
Make the trade easy for the poor guy. It wasn't his fault Little Nicky gave up a 2 for him.
See if any of our potential trade partners have a waterboy or equipment guy they need to get rid of (don't get your panties in a wad, I'm NOT saying that's all he's worth).
Hell we may get lucky and score a cute little cheerleader to add to our own hotties.
 
Where will Culpepper end up?

Well, now that Trent Green is a Dolphin, Daunte Culpepper is being shown the door. The question is: Where will Culpepper land?

Here's a list of teams I could see trading for Culpepper:

1. Jacksonville - Adam Schefter reported that Jacksonville might be interested in acquiring Culpepper. C-Pep might like the idea of staying in FL.

However... Jack Del Rio indicated the team would consider taking a look at Culpepper, but only if he would accept the team's backup quarterback job. Del Rio has said that Leftwich will be the Jaguars' starting quarterback this season.

2. St. Louis - Adam Schefter also reported that the Rams are interested. Scott Linehan is a fan. How funny would it be if Culpepper beat out Gus Frerotte for the backup job?

3. New England - Schefter also reported that the Patsies are interested. Son of a *****!!! I could see Belichick doing this just to mess with us.

4. Detroit - And Schefter says the Lions are interested. Although I'm surprised. I thought they were happy with Kitna. And they drafted Drew Stanton to be their QB of the future.

Teams Schefter didn't mention:

5. Buffalo - Culpepper would have a good shot at outright beating J.P. Losman or Craig Nall for the starting job. Also, he would get two grudge matches a year against the Fins.

6. Baltimore - Steve McNair is old. Culpepper could step in after McNair is done. He would certainly be a better option than Kyle Boller.

7. NY Jets - Kellen Clemens is backing up Chad Pennington. If Culpepper is looking for a chance to start, he would probably get the nod before Clemens if Pennington got injured again.

8. Dallas - If Romo flops his sophomore season, then Dallas would have to look to backup Brad Johnson. Culpepper might be a more attractive security blanket.

9. Washington - Culpepper would have a shot at outright beating Jason Campbell or Mark Brunell for the starting job.

10. Green Bay - If Brett Favre doesn't return, Culpepper would be an interesting option. If Aaron Rodgers falters, the Packers would have C-Pep ready to go. And Culpepper has experience playing in the NFC North division.

No it tells you no one wants to be on the hook for that contract.
 
It's so irritating that we had to "give in" to Peterson's trade demands for Green. Giving up a 5th and possible 4th for a 37 year old guy that nobody else wanted and then turn around and just dump a 30 year old QB we just gave up a 2nd for a year ago. If that doesn't sound like the moves of a loser, I don't know what else would!

Everybody seems to be overlooking that Green's passer rating was worse last year than CPEP and CPEP sucked!
 
dont be suprised if the lions pick him up. He fits their offense almost better than the rams offense. lions or rams! good luck culpepper
 
What about Atlanta? Something happens to Vick (federal charges, suspension, etc.), maybe Pep and Joey are reunited. That would be funny.
