Several of Daunte Culpepper's teammates in Detroit are impressed with how he looks entering the team's minicamp. Culpepper has reportedly dropped significant weight. "He came in this year about 260 (pounds), so he's definitely getting himself in shape and he's just very upbeat and positive. He's a veteran guy who brings that veteran leadership, and it's very noticeable out there," said receiver Bryant Johnson. "He looks good, and I look forward to working with him." Tackle George Foster says that the quarterback is sending a huge message to the team, which went 0-16 in 2008. "I've only been here about three days, but the biggest thing I can say is that he's leading by example. The guy looks amazing," Foster said. "He looks like he's coming out of college, and that takes dedication in itself. He's been working and he made an impression on me. He means business."
