Minnesota Vikings, Tennessee Titans to Acquire Veteran Quarterbacks Donovan McNabb, Matt Hasselbeck

Anytime a team wins a championship, other teams will copy its formula.

For those of you who forgot what the NFL looked like before the lockout, the Green Bay Packers won Super Bowl XLV with a quarterback (Aaron Rodgers) they kept on the bench for his first three years while they waited for Brett Favre to, uh, retire.

After three years, and Favre's first "retirement," the Packers decided to give Rodgers a chance under center. And the rest is history.

Unlike the Packers in 2005, the Minnesota Vikings and Tennessee Titans did not have an veteran starting quarterback in hand when they picked Christian Ponder and Jake Locker, respectively, in the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft.

So what are they doing about it? Are they going to just throw their rookie quarterbacks onto the gridiron only a few months after finding out that there would be a full season in 2011?

No. Instead, the Vikings and Titans each went out and took a quarterback. Each with three years, more or less, left of their prime years.

According to sources taking to ESPN, the Vikings reached a tentative agreement to trade two sixth-round picks in exchange for Donovan McNabb and Matt Hasselbeck has agreed to sign with the Titans.

Now, even with the newly-imposed rookie wage scale, some first-year players may still be overpaid.

New York Jets Sign Santonio Holmes, Talking to Nnamdi Asomugha

With more than $34 million of cap space to spend, the Chicago Bears should be expected to go after a big-name wide receiver in the next few weeks.

Well, it won't be Santonio Holmes, as he agreed to stay with the Jets.

Now, with Darrelle Revis already patrolling their backfield, one may assume that the Jets would not be one of the teams interested in signing Nnamdi Asomugha.

However, with Antonio Cromartie hitting the open market, the Jets are in discussions with the most coveted free agent on the market.

Imagine it: Wide receivers trapped on Revis Island and in Nnamdi's Jungle.

I hope wideouts love trees.
