FOXSports.com has learned the Vikings and Dolphins have agreed on a trade, with Miami sending a second-round pick to the Vikings in exchange for the Pro Bowl quarterback.
The trade is contingent upon Culpepper passing a physical, and takes Miami out of the running for free-agent quarterback Drew Brees who now could be headed to the Saints.

Culpepper was a three-time Pro Bowl selection for Minnesota but played poorly last season before tearing three ligaments in his right knee in a game Oct. 30. He has been at odds with the Vikings over his 10-year, $102 million contract and wants to be traded.

"If a trade does not happen then I am asking the Vikings to terminate my contract as soon as possible," he said in a recent e-mail to media outlets.

I was really hoping Miami would land Brees... [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Fall Cutler Fall. All the way to #18.

If Brees goes to NO, then do the Saints still use their pick on a QB? For instance, draft Vince Young to learn their system and back up Brees, ala Phillip Rivers?

no, they are drafting Mario Williams if they get Brees.

I heard they are going to draft the top defensive player.

Where does VY fall to then? Oakland? As far as Dallas? That one signing has some major ramifications on the draft.

its hard to say honestly.

I would say some teams would rethink their decision...like Buffalo, they might as well draft Young because Loseman is a bust, anyone that thinks he isnt is kidding themselves.
