Green Deal to Dolphins Hit a Snag?

Well some "Could be" good news for all the Trent Green haters.

Apparently there is a snag with the deal. The dolphins don't appear to be willing to give up anything more than a 6th or 7th rounder (upgraded most likely if he wins the starting job, which he probably will). So lets assume for the sake of arguments a 5th rounder if he wins the position. Point being, because of the deal with Schaub (who might I add has only played 2 NFL games in his entire life) the Chiefs now feel that Trent Green's value has gone way up, being he's a former pro-bowler and is a very good QB (yes he's a bit old, remember a guy named Rich Gannon? Green can still play, don't be fooled).

So the problem may be the Chiefs don't want to give him up for cheaply. What if Damon Huard struggles this year? Brodie hasn't proved a thing...

Also, the Detroit Lions have contacted KC about Green to add more to the mix.

There is still a good chance that Trent Green will be wearing Teal and Orange, however, the dolphins could easily say it isn't worth a day one draft pick (because it isn't) and sign David Carr. This would still signal the release of Culpepper. They also could elect to do absolutely nothing and go into the draft with what they have. There is still a lot of spectulation but it will be very interesting to see what happens between now and the draft.

Kobe Does It AGAIN!

Kobe Bryant became only the second person in the history in the NBA to score 50 points in 4 straight games.

Kobe accomplished this midway through the 4th quarter against the Hornets.

It will be interesting to see how he plays in his next game, with history on the line... let's see if he sets a new record. The sky is the limit for this guy, say what you want and like him or hate him, but he's a gamer and he wins!

Texan's Cut David Carr!

What was spectulation all day yesterday, the Texan's found no one willing to give up a draft pick for their former QB, David Carr.

Now Carr is free to sign a deal with any team he chooses and is basically a free agent. Teams who thought to might have interest in Carr's services are the Vikings, Dolphins and Raiders.

The dolphins look to be landing Trent Green anytime now, and the Raiders figure to be a suiter for Dante Culpepper if he is released by Miami. As of right now, the Vikings seem like the most logical landing spot for the former #1 overall draft pick, but anything can happen.

Carr will likely be a starter to a club with a younger QB waiting in the wings, who can take over as the starting QB next season.

Culpepper on his way out of Miami?

Not yet, but the hourglass is moving!

I just saw Nick Schefter on nfl.com talking about the situation in Miami.

He basically said that the chances are "VERY GOOD" that Miami will trade for Trent Green, make him the starter, and cut Dante Culpepper.

The other thing he mentioned was that David Carr will likely be released (if not traded) and the Vikings might scoop down and pick him up. This would likely mean they are sticking with Jackson as their future QB and will just have Carr as veteran leadership. This also means the likelyhood of them drafting Quinn will be very small, giving the edge once more to the dolphins.

Let's see how the domino's fall.

Trent Green on the Verge of Becoming a Dolphin!

Apparently Trent Green, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Miami Dolphins have agreed in principal to a trade for the QB Green.

The biggest holding point right now is Green, who is scheduled to make approximently 7 million in each of his next three seasons. Miami only wants to pay him the league mininum.

Even given the situation, I have a feeling Green will be wearing Teal and Orange by the end of the week. That is, if Miami don't call Houston and ask what they want for David Carr.

Matt Schaub TRADED from Atlanta to Houston!

Houston has found its new franchise QB, and David Carr looks to be on his way out of town.

The Texan's agreed to trade for backup QB Matt Schaub from the Falcons in exchange for 2 second round picks (2007 and 2008) as well as swapping first rounders. Now the falcons will pick 8th, and the Texan's will pick 10th.

The Texan's also signed Schaub to a six year - 48 million dollar contract.

I guess the Texan's are going to invest in the second franchise QB for their team. For Kubiak's sake, they better hope so.

What kind of ripple effect will this have on the draft and other QB trades? Last time a player was traded, a flurry of other moves were signaled. What will happen next?

More to follow concerning this trade and the upcoming draft.
