Chiefs quarterback Trent Green has finally got his wish. He's now a former Chiefs quarterback.

The Miami Dolphins have agreed to trade a fifth-round pick in the 2008 draft — which could become a fourth-rounder depending on how much action Green sees for Miami in 2007 — in exchange for the veteran quarterback, FOXSports.com has learned.

The deal is contingent on Green passing a physical. He is scheduled to fly to Miami Tuesday evening to take that physical.

The Dolphins could have ended the protracted negotiations long before Tuesday, but had held out in the belief that the Chiefs would eventually cut Green.

The long-discussed deal finally got done when Chiefs brass informed the Dolphins a trade had to get done by today or else they would have kept Green on their roster for the 2007 season.

Green played in just eight games for the Chiefs in 2006 due to injury. He completed 61.1 percent of his passes for 1,342 yards, but threw for just seven touchdowns and nine interceptions.

About time. Look for Daunte to ask to be traded or released now, since he obviously isn't in the present or future plans for the Dolphins.

im glad Trent ended up somewhere decent, he is an underrated QB.
This gives the Dolphins a fairly balanced offense, although im still not sure on their line. Also, this still doesnt change the fact they should have drafted Quinn

This is definitly a step.... BACK in the right direction after passing on Quinn.
