When was the last time a RB garnered a 1st round pick in a trade??

Add in the caveats of

Injury history 

Massive contract 

Changes in the league devaluing that position..

I'm sorry for my lack of knowledge but all I can think of is Dumbass Hershel Walker.. And that was 40 years ago.. Let me know if you can think of another RB lately who was traded for a 1st round pick??

I ain't mad. We knew he was going to get hurt or get traded. No biggie time to rebuild and think of the future.

His best season we won 5 games.. With him being the face of the franchise (ofcourse injuries) 16 wins in 3 season.. 

Hate to lose him love him as a player..

But his contract, His position, team situation and his injury concerns dictated this needed to be done..

Literally we got a draft for a RB..

In the 80's we would have gotten more but today's football is different and this isn't a bad deal.. 

I play too much Dynasty football I’d like to admit. But I’m saying that it gives you great insight into skilled position players and their draft capital. There’s a very good chance we could get a Hall, Swift, JT level player with the 2nd and then the rest is cream let alone the much cheaper contract

I literally would never give a 2nd contract to any RB now unless it was cheap.. The value isn't there anymore..

There are unicorns but yeah as a general rule you do not. We should’ve traded cmc after his 1k 1k season which some on here said we should do and got screamed down.

    • Great write up. I think we're going to try to keep both of the guys we've gotten from the Vikings on that DE/OLB rotation. I don't think they ever had the chance to get up to speed together. And I really agree with you about Clowney.  I really think this room really is going to depend on whether our long-term goal is to continue with 3-4 (I hope not) or go back to 4-3 full time. I'm hoping the safety situation and the LB situation don't end up biting us in the butt. I just don't see where we've gotten better there yet. I hope I'm wrong about this. O-line... just when things are jelling, you find out this might be the last season the group can expect to be together... that's just our history here. Again. Any thoughts on Moose's kid, Moose 3, coming as an undrafted FA WR? 
    • That’s interesting to know. He’s adjusting and conditioning to what feels like the optimal situation for him. I’ll tell you, sounds like he’s been coached very well to recognize those things, have the strong run game skills and continuing to build out his moveset. He really seems like a high floor guy that I’m just surprised lasted that long. Feel really string about him and Princely. Just tough guys with good experience, size, skills, there’s no weird outlier question marks with either of them. 
    • I've been here through all of that. I'm like a cockroach. I'm not going anywhere.
