That's why you are not a GM and you just fail on message boards. We drafted Duece, Ricky's replacement in the first using the 23 rd pick in Ricky's second year. Why would we do that? Because they made a decision to get rid of him. You are either too old to remember, or too young. We sucked for years after the trade to get Ricky because of what we gave up to get him. We were trading for depth with MI, nothing more. We got him at 28 with a 1st round swap and a second.
It's Ricky.

First of all what the frick is the gm crack about? And frick you. Second of all after he was traded he became a top 2-3 running back in the league. Like I said, the decision to do what we did and trade for him was a bust but if you think that automatically makes his career a bust you're a fricking moron. I don't know why you can't grasp that concept.

Go look up Ditka's draft picks. If you think he was bringing in anything worth a shite you're lying to yourself. Ditka just missed out on drafting the 1999 version of Chris Bordano and Jared Tomich.
