Daunte Culpepper

I feel bad for anyone who had to do autodraft in their NFL fantasy league and wound up with Daunte Culpepper as their starting QB. However, I have no sympathy for you if you picked Culpepper of yor own free will or if you don't drop himfor whatever starter is still available - even if it is Chris Simms or Charlie Frye.

Culpepper is the fantasy football talisman of doom. He's got a QB rating of 69.2 which is better than both Drew Bledsoe and Jake Delhomme but you know both of those guys will rebound. Culpepper leads all QB's with an eye-popping 10 sacks (even the stationary Bledsoe only has 3) and Culpepper has only thrown for 1 TD while throwing 3 picks.

I laugh at all the sportswriters who picked Miami as the surprise team this year. With Culpepper leading the team - Miami is going nowhere and for the sportswriters to not see that tells you all you need to know about how well they really understand the NFL.
