I was logging on to bring this trade up, which IMO is the worst (at least Indy) Colts trade in history.

In a vacuum the Jeff George trade was probably worse, but since Tobin was somehow able to flip him for 2 1st rounders and a 3rd the Young trade IMO is worse. Tobin pretty much thew away the '94 1st and 3rd rounders on Trev Alberts, but obviously made the most out of the '96 1st by drafting Marvin.

I also think the Craig Erickson trade was worse than the Trent Richardson trade. Arguably the Wentz trade was as well even though Ballard was able to recoup some of the draft capital he gave up to get Wentz.
