Remember skymike, it was a pretty even battle at the time between Aikman and Walsh. The Cowboys did draft both with first round picks, and Aikman was pretty horrible at the beginning of his career. I remember this information when the deal went down. Before the Internet I was a serious AM radio junkie... LOL. Also, a while back Jimmy Johnson was being interviewed and said it turned out great for the Cowboys that the Saints insisted on Walsh. I know this is hard to believe but true. It would be nice if I can find an article on it, but that would be almost impossible at this point.
