Minny tell us how the Minnesota Vikings traded for Herschel Walker
Cowboys got Emmit Smith and Russle Maryland lol.
Wanted to start a thread about the debacle with all the abortion thing on the news it is sensitively close to getting political.
Herschel was drafted by the New Jersey generals and the Dallas Cowboys.
I don't blame the Vikes for that at all.
They were coming off a NFC title game followed by a 11 win season.
The trade wasn't expected to play out as described. The picks were compensation fir cut players. Johnson cut like 6 starters including a pro bowler.
No one at the time expected they'd basically just fukk all a year or 2 and go winless / not competitive...but they did.
Minny went for the ring, got the highest orifice RB in the game and paired him w the best D, pro bowl QB & WR1 & TE.
The rest is history
