This was before Megatron was known as Megatron and Roy was WR1 for the Lions. In 2006 he had 1300 yards and in 2007 he was on pace to have over 1100 until he got hurt and missed the final four games. So at the time he was seen as their top receiver.

[@MGAF688]

Dickerson had 6968 yards rushing between 1983-86. That's just under 1800 yards/season. He also added 874 yards receiving. He scored 57 TDs in 4 seasons. I remember the trade as being HUGE. Walker's trade eclipsed it, however.

[@rtk5847]

They forgot to mention about Marshawn Lynch being caught with a hand gun in his gym bag while at Buffalo, it was one of the reason's Buffalo let him go.

My opinion, the Cowboys getting a first round pick for Amari Cooper in 2018 was a big trade because it turned Dallas' season around, from 3-5 to finish 10-6 and in the playoffs.

[@MGAF688]

In Walker's first full season in Minnesota (1990), he led the NFL in all-purpose yards. 2051. He also had 9 TDs. In 1991, he dipped to 1112 a-p/yds. But he had 10 TDs. This notion that he was a complete failure in MN is a bit overstated. He was a disappointment to be sure because Minnesota didn't win with him in 1990 or 91 (14-18). However, Walker's career has been undermined by the perception that he was a 100% bust in Minnesota. That is not true.

Anybody saying that Herschel wasn't good with the Vikings didn't actually watch the games or else they didn't know what they were watching. Look at his numbers. He wasn't the problem, the owner was. Herschel's contract was incentive heavy. I watched him get 90 yards in the first quarter numerous times, only to see him pulled from the game to make sure he didn't get 100 for the game. 2 QB'S ended up losing the ability to audible because their kept changing the play to give the ball to Herschel. He was catching 60 passes a year at a time when the average for a running back was around 25. And he averaged over 4.5 ypc in a outdated, useless system that was set up for failure

[@danlorett2184]

Yeah Walker was screwed by the Vikings system, that's for sure. He was a fantastic player. It still made a massive amount of sense for Dallas to trade him - the rest of the Dallas squad was near useless. Having an all-pro RB surrounded by a bunch of nobodies doesn't equal a winning team. This video doesn't really do justice explaining how they structured the trade to get one over on the Vikings either. Originally they traded for players but Dallas brought up that they wanted some kind of guarantee or consolation if the players they traded for didn't work out. That's what prompted the Vikings to offer the conditional draft picks - they knew the players they were trading were almost assuredly better than what Dallas had (which was mostly true) so the Vikings didn't think they'd have to give up the picks at all. Then Jimmy Johnson just cut all of the players because he was REALLY after the draft picks. There was a significant amount of subterfuge involved in this trade and the Vikings were blindsided by Johnson cutting ALL of the players to take ALL of the draft picks. On top of that the practice of trading up draft picks was pretty much never done in the league at this point. Johnson took his raft of picks and started calling other teams offering them draft picks in earlier years so he could get more or better picks in later years. He was able to parlay those 6 draft picks he mugged the Vikings for into nearly an entire team of top draft picks just 3-4 years later. Of course since then, teams have wised up considerably and now they value draft picks much more highly. Johnson played a trick nobody had really used before and he got the maximum value out of it, then turned that windfall into even more by innovating draft pick trading and being patient.

Do top 10 nfl draft time trades

[@chrisuncleahmad]

As big as the Dickerson trade was, they got it right with #1. #2 was moreso win win all around. The Rams got more out of Greg Bell than the Vikings got with Walker. Indy got needed franchise legitimacy and the Bills got Bennett/Shane Conlan, key pieces for their SB teams.

I guess the Colts got legitimacy. As far as I know from my own experience most Hoosiers remained Bears fans only the 1995 season when the Colts were a missed hail mary from the SB, then Manning came along a few years later.

Being on the sidelines with TO sounds so fun.

“the lesson here is when you get advice on the draft from a homeless person, make sure you ask a 2nd homeless person just to make sure” LMAO

The John Hadl trade- lot of talk about what they gave the Rams, but what exactly did the Rams do WITH those picks?

[@raykaker8209]

i think Erick Dickerson Trade was best of all time because they got 3 first rounders and 3 second rounders for the Erick. but the cowboys did better with the draft pick there for they picked H. Walker trade was considered as the best trade of all time.

There are more trades that should be mentioned in the best of the rest. The Dolphins trade Chris Chambers to the Chargers, The Browns trade Braylon Edwards to the Jets, The Panthers trade Kelvin Benjamin to the Bills, The Patriots trade Jimmy Garoppolo to the 49ers.

“IN-season trades”

[@samjohnson4626]

I think BB knew Jimmy was going to be injure prone I mean if you look back he gets badly injured first or second game, jacoby gets injured and forced to play on one leg for a game. It's why both got tossed they got injured I bet in a year or two another QB will get drafted for the pats anyways. Though if our RBs can't stay healthy and Gronk leaves it might be three or four.
