Tree offers his retrospective on the Ricky Williams trade

Not only that but Ricky was in the top 20 all time for rushing yards when he retired. If the NFL didn't test for weed back then there's a good chance he would have been top 10, possibly a hall of famer. He was a very good running back. It was just stupid of Ditka to tell the whole world who he wanted and how much he would pay.
He absolutely would have been a hall of famer and was most likely the best rb the saints ever had. We just didn’t keep him that long
