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.

    • He's a good feeney spin move that I never remember big money having. Plus I had forgotten that Charles is Panthers all-time sack leader. I havnt got a read on nic, he's awful young and talented. He talks about effort and wants to stop the run. I need to see him in live action, then maybe its nickname or former panther name time for me.
    • Not trying to be melodramatic but from a corporate standpoint there is a big push for data security and privacy pertaining to personal information.  Someone mentioned in the other thread about suing the kid but the only place there is possible money is him suing the Falcons organization for negligence related to the leaked personal information.   At best, Shedur makes some added bank and the Falcons look like fools while this circus plays out. At worst, he’ll get free credit monitoring for a year or two. 
    • I met Shaq at an OTA---if you recall, he was absent until the end due to Washington being on the quarter system. He was very nice--soft spoken--but I was thinking "Linebacker?" As an OLB in a 4-3, he was small.  I did not see 6'0"--I saw 5'10-5'11 tops and maybe 220.  When we converted to a 3-4, that moved him inside and, in my opinion, shortened his career.  He just does not have the frame for ILB duties.  If you watch enough film, you will see that Shaq often was late getting to the hole and tackled from the side a lot.  Morgan and Luke were in the hole square with the LOS and talking on blocks and RBs head on.  Had Shaq met pulling guards and fullbacks in the hole like that, he would not have lasted 4 years. He had a very frail frame.
