#8: The Herschel Walker trade impact
Not every draft moment happens with a college player walking across the stage. Some begin with a trade that changes the value of future picks. The Herschel Walker trade impact is still discussed because the Dallas Cowboys sent Walker to the Minnesota Vikings in 1989 and turned the return into building blocks for their 1990s dynasty. The deal produced or helped Dallas maneuver toward key pieces, including Emmitt Smith, and the Cowboys soon became the team of the decade. At the moment, it was easy to understand Minnesota’s excitement.
