Rosenfels to Vikings Trade Near Complete

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Report: Texans, Vikings talk trade

The Texans and Vikings are close to a trade that would send quarterback Sage Rosenfels to Minnesota, possibly for a fourth-round draft pick, the Houston Chronicle reported Monday.

This is the second consecutive year in which the Vikings have been interested in acquiring Rosenfels, who is near the end of his contract, to be their starting quarterback.

Rosenfels wanted to be traded to the Vikings last season in hopes of starting for a team that has Adrian Peterson and Chester Taylor at running back and has led the NFL in run defense for two straight years.

At the time, the Vikings reportedly offered a third-round draft choice, but the Texans wanted a second-round pick. Both teams denied an offer was made.

Minnesota already has quarterbacks Gus Frerotte and Tarvaris Jackson on its roster and will want to extend Rosenfels' contract if the trade is completed.

The Texans had no comment Monday on the report.

A freakin' fourth round draft choice?

What do the Texans do the next time their China doll QB gets hurt?

That Sage feller made me chuckle on that QB roll out that he had, which lead him to be flown up in the air like a rag doll.

The guy gets his salary tripled and the Texans end up with a fourth round draft choice. Seems like if the Vikings wanted him so badly the Texans should have ended up with something more substantial.

I wonder if derrick ward really would want to sign with the texans....It would make a hell of a RB tandom with SLATON/WARD.

I hope Rosencopter does well with the Vikings. His lasting memory with me is him handing Indy the game in Houston. Thanks asshole. I'm still pissed about that!

Well...after the Colts fiasco and his game against Baltimore we're lucky to get a fourth. Actually, it's border line stealing. The Vikings are idiots for restructing a guy's contract who's TD's=INT's these past few seasons.

So who exactly are the Texans planning on starting at QB for the half the season that Schaub won't play?
