Culpepper wants a raise, Culpepper doesn’t want a raise, Culpepper traded?

Here’s a lesson TO should have learned: when in doubt, blame your agent. Yesterday, Culpepper’s agent, Mason Ashe, said that he is ready to begin negotiations “so Daunte can assume the position on the NFL pay scale that he so deserves”. Let’s see, your client is a QB that proved he is below average at best without one of the most talented receivers in the game, he tends to fumble, has lead his team to only 2 playoff appearances, and got routed by the Giants in the biggest game of his career. I’m pretty sure that the pay scale “he deserves” is somewhere in Jon Kitna territory.

Today, Ashe backpedaled and said that he was not authorized to comment on negotiations or seek more money from the team. Well, perhaps he doesn’t need to as it was reported that the Vikings might trade Culepper. Among the potential teams are Baltimore, Oakland, Miami, and Arizona.

One reply on “Culpepper wants a raise, Culpepper doesn’t want a raise, Culpepper traded?”

Culpepper — I think that Culpepper is a terrible qb and has only looked good in the past because of Randy Moss the best wide receiver ever(well almost).  Culpepper gets to rattled and doesn’t look around for the open man but becomes a deer in the headlights.  He should have been happy with his 100 million contract.  He is overpaid by more than any pro football player.  Even old Brad did better than Culpepper.  I think he should go to the Packers.  Then Farve could retire knowing that Green Bay had no chance at all.
