Hands down it is Williams. Gave up everything for Williams

Pick #12 (Rd. 1) in the 1999 NFL Draft
Pick #71 (Rd. 3) in the 1999 NFL Draft
Pick #106 (Rd. 4) in the 1999 NFL Draft
Pick #144 (Rd. 5) in the 1999 NFL Draft
Pick #179 (Rd. 6) in the 1999 NFL Draft
Pick #218 (Rd. 7) in the 1999 NFL Draft
Pick #2 (Rd. 1) in the 2000 NFL Draft
Pick #64 (Rd. 3) in the 2000 NFL Draft

And Essentially gave up a 2nd rounder for Ingram.

Williams first 2 years
Games played: 22
Rushes: 501
Yards: 1884
YPC: -------->>>>> 3.7 (Avg. only 3.8 with the saints)
TDs: 10
Fumbles/Lost: 12/6

Ingram first 2 years:
Games played: 26
Rushes: 278
Yards: 1078
YPC: 3.9
TDs: 10
Fumbles/Lost: 1/1

Williams had much better receiving numbers but that is because he had Lamar Smith, Wilmont Perry and (end of career) Terry Allen instead of two of the best pass catching RBs in the league like Sproles and Thomas.

This. Ditka was a dumbass for what he did. I honestly would not trade that much for ANY player.

Because of that it's Williams>>>>>Ingram>>Bush.

More and more teams are starting to not draft 1st round RB's.
