BP Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 By Edgar Thompson Palm Beach Post Staff Writer Saturday, April 28, 2007 The Dolphins should complete a trade for Kansas City quarterback Trent Green before the end of this weekend's NFL Draft, a source said Friday. The negotiations, which began in late February, most likely will conclude Sunday, the source said. The developments signal a change in Kansas City's steadfast demand for a second-round pick in return for the 36-year-old, two-time Pro Bowl quarterback. The draft's first three rounds will be completed today, with the final four rounds Sunday. The Chiefs now would settle for the Dolphins fourth-round selection (No. 108 overall) for Green, according to ESPN's John Clayton. Miami has offered Kansas City a late-round pick since Day One for Green, but the Chiefs reportedly have asked for as much as a second- and seventh-round pick. Once the teams complete the deal, Miami will turn to the issue of quarterback Daunte Culpepper's future with the team. Culpepper, who stands to make $5.5 million in 2007, continues to rehabilitate a major injury to his right knee he suffered in November 2005. He aggravated the injury last September and had another procedure performed in November to remove a piece of cartilage. With rumors spreading that he would be traded or even released, Culpepper sent an e-mail to The Post and other media outlets Thursday to express his frustration and belief he will return to full health this off-season. Green, who turns 37 on July 9, also has a history of injuries. Last season, he missed eight games because of problems caused by a concussion. link How many fricking times is this rumor gonna pop up?

Sperm Edwards Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 With the draft here already, if I were Miami I wouldn't do a thing until they see who's there for them in round 1. They'll feel pretty foolish giving up a 2nd rounder for Green & his big contract if Quinn is still sitting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
