"nine running backs have accumulated 390-plus carries in a season. Only one, Eric Dickerson, continued to ascend after toting the rock that many times. Everyone else faded quickly." I'm curious who were some of the others and how many career carries did they have prior to the workhorse season and did they have a history of injuries prior to that season?

I could be wrong, but with the frequency that teams are finding good RBs in the draft and FA... I don't see a R1 pick in return.
I would say something similar to the Portis for Bailey and a R4 pick scenario. Go for a stud player, like a WR... OL ... something and a R3-4 pick. Hell - make a trade like that and sign a guy like Dom Rhodes for a fraction of the $ that LJ will want and you'll likely come out better in the end.

See that’s my first thought, how many of’em had that many carries in their first full season? It seems like Jamal “Dirty Bird” Anderson was one, but it wasn’t his first full season and his career ended with a knee injury, IIRC.

For my purposes, it's largely irrelevant whether or not he WILL fade. Just the fact that the possibility EXISTS and there's ample evidence of it happening decreases his trade value, IMO. It doesn't diminish his value to us nearly as much because we already account for his salary. |

You can also add TD to that list of RBs in the 390+ carry group that didn't repeat thanks to an injury. Davis had 392 carries, broke 2,000 yds rushing and was hurt the next season.
