But look at the RBs out of the draft this year. Allgeier in the 5th, Pierce in the 4th, Pacheco in the 7th.
Why would you bother trading for a RB with an injury history, little team control and the biggest salary hit of his contract coming up? He's at $2.1 million for an acquiring team next season ($3.4 for the Chiefs).
A late round rookie will cost maybe $800K and come with 4 years of control.
There's just no reason at all to trade for MEH. He's demonstrated nothing at this level to indicate that he's even a viable 3rd down back, let alone any sort of plus ballcarrier.

I get chuckle when CEH is out and the announcers seem to make a big deal of it. That tells me right there they don't actually watch the games and know what is going on most of the time. Dude sucks and if Veach got a 6th round pick out of him he deserves GM of the decade.
