The Facts:
Due a $6 million roster bonus on March 17, Culpepper released a statement to ESPN on Wednesday that read: "Now that I have confirmed that the Vikings have been seeking to trade me, I have asked for permission to speak to the interested teams. The Vikings have denied my request. If a trade does not happen then I am asking the Vikings to terminate my contract as soon as possible."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Culpepper went on to say he feels it time the two sides parted ways, but added: "If the team chooses not to honor my request, then I intend to fulfill my contractual obligations to the Minnesota Vikings. ..." Let's review: Trade me or terminate me. ... Or I fulfill my obligations? Not exactly the most ominous threat we've ever heard. ... We'll continue to follow this, but we aren't expecting a drastic change in the team's strategy here.
