Green in, Culpepper Out!

Wow, my apologies for not writing as often as usual. Work has just been incredibly busy so I only get the time to write 4-5 times a week (which is about half my usual). Still, Ill do my very best to give you an entertaining read every time out :)

As we all know by now, Trent Green is now a Miami Dolphin, and Culpepper is on his way out. There is no way Cameron is going to keep his 5.5 million dollar salary with Green and Beck on the roster. Not to mention Lemon who has shown signs of improvement. Nope, one way or another, Culpepper is not going to take another snap in a Miami uniform again.

So this has obviously sparked some debate.... give Culpepper a chance, let them fight it out they say. Honestly, I don`t really understand why! Culpepper has been injured for 2 years and although I figure personally he IS healed, I do not think he fits Cameron`s offense. Culpepper needs to air it out, like the days with the Vikings, so places like St. Louis, and Jacksonville makes a lot of sense. Green knows Cameron and his offense very well as it is, and getting him now means he won`t be late learning the new system with his teammates.

I also hear arguments about how Trent is always injured but in fact last year was the first time he was injured for a good number of years. He has always been healthy and on the field. Plus, a concussion isn`t something that puts you on the shelf for the long haul and the fact that it was the first game of the season, no wonder he struggled when he came back.

Nope, I really have a feeling that Miami will surprise some people this year. With a smart, healthy Trent Green throwing the ball (the same former pro-bowler who threw for 4000 yards 3 years in a row). Beck is waiting in the wings and will be the future star once Green is done, likely at the end of this season unless Miami is really struggling. September can`t come fast enough!

Until next time,
