EASY QUESTION -- about 1989 Minnesota Vikings traded something like 7 draft picks to Dallas for Herschel walker. This laid the foundation for the 1990s Super Bowl Cowboys, and eliminated Minnesota as a threat for another decade.
Meanwhile, the Vikings coach just put Herschel into a 4-man rotation at running back and he seldom touched the ball more than 6 or 7 times a game. His highlight was a kickoff return for about 60 yards where he got caught because his shoe fell off and he was running downfield half-barefooted.

It just might be the trade that the Giants made to get Eli Manning.
Eli went to the Giants for Philip Rivers along with their 1st and 5th round picks in 2005 and a 3rd round pick in 2004 — from which the main acquisitions from this trade have been future Pro Bowlers(along with Rivers) Outside Linebacker Shawne Merriman and Kicker Nate Kaeding. The best trade the Chargers have ever made may also be the worst roster move of all time on the part of the Giants.

By far hands down the trade with Dallas sending Herschel Walker to Minnesota for 5 roster players (LB Jesse Solomon, DB Issiac Holt, RB Darrin Nelson, LB David Howard, DE Alex Stewart), and 6 assorted draft picks (conditional 1st & 2nd round in '90 and '91; 1st round and conditional 3rd in '92).
From this the Cowboys drafted Emmitt Smith and Troy Aikman.
You think Minnesota over paid just a tad?

Stafford is unproven, yet enable's wait a year earlier calling him a bust. I keep in thoughts too many human beings calling out Matt Ryan as a bust even as he change into picked very last year. the different Bulldog, Knowshon, i imagine he will be sturdy if given a danger to play. i ought to agree inspite of the indisputable fact that that the Broncos made a very terrible bypass by figuring out on yet another RB even as their protection is starving. As for you comments on Larry English, you do not even understand him, so why even worry attempting to criticize? the guy is explosive and is ridiculously quick. he's a ideal fit for the Chargers protection.
