Sportsnet.ca -- The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have added quarterback Daunte Culpepper to their confidential negotiation list, Sportsnet.ca has learned.

Culpepper is the property of the Miami Dolphins, but the six-foot-five, 265-pounder may be on the move following the team's acquisition of Trent Green this week from the Kansas City Chiefs.

Culpepper, 30, played only four games for the Dolphins last year in his first year with Miami, which acquired him from Minnesota for a second-round draft pick, because of a shoulder injury.

He later underwent surgery on the same knee, which limited him to only seven games the previous year.

Canadian Football League teams each have an exclusive 35-player negotiation list. The neg list is usually comprised of NFL players under contract and U.S. college players and allows CFL teams exclusive rights to sign those players if they become available.

I really hope Culpepper considers playing over here, It'd atleast make it interesting to see how he does with a great Wide reciver in Milt Stegal (who buy the way just became the leading reciver in CFL history). Plus if he can play up to par he could lead my Bomders to to a Grey Cup, which is never a bad thing.

He had a great WR in Minnesota... Randy Moss and he had him in his prime. He also had one of the best WR of all time in Chris Carter at the end of his career. Culpepper is a good QB, not great by any means, but he is good. I think if he went to the CFL, he could be one of the best there, but he will always just be good in the NFL.

He's going to the Oakland Raiders training facility today. perhaps Oakland will sign him in case Russell doesn't sign soon

Culpepper and the Raiders don't fit for me. I think Russel will get over himself and sign soon enough but I agree if Russell plays the fool and doesn't sign, Culpepper is a good enough QB to last the season. However all reports suggest Josh McCown is impressing in Oakland.

I still think Atlanta or Jacksonville are the best fit for Danute and I think alot of people are underestimating his abilities if he is fully fit. IMO I regard Culpepper as an elite QB when he's fit, if he starts I can see him having a really good year. Sure he had good receivers in Minnesota but judging him on his performance in his last year at the VIkes and Miami is wrong because the guys knees were messed up.

He would be wasted in the CFL.
