Set: Collector's Edge Excalibur - Die Cuts (Rate)

Card: #58 Herschel Walker


“ I heard the Eagles traded the Vikings three wenches, a boar, four kegs of mead, six finely plumed hats, a mace, a flail, several joints of mutton, a bag of holding, a magic missile, an 8-sided die and a draft choice to be named later for this guy. ” -revnorb

“ Walker was drafted out of Georgia in the 5th round (114th overall) by the Dallas Cowboys during the 1985 NFL Draft. He played from 1986-1997 in the NFL with the Cowboys (twice), Vikings, Eagles and Giants. Career NFL Stats: 8,225 Rushing Yards, 61 Rushing TDs, 5,856 Receiving Yards and 21 Receiving TDs. He was a 2x Pro Bowler and 2x 2nd Team All-Pro. He also played in the USFL prior to the NFL from 1983-1985 with the New Jersey Generals. During those 3 seasons he ran for 5,562 Yards and 54 TDs. After he retired and into his 40's, he started to pursue a career in MMA. He fought in two matches winning both by TKO. ” -carthage44

“ I had forgotten that Philly actually got a 1,000-yard season out of him. ” -UNC_Samurai

“ Herschel Walker was a great running back for the Dallas Cowboys. He tried MMA and I believe he was successful, but never made it big. ” -yokonashiwa

“ Too bad that MMA career never took off ” -jackal726

“ Can we talk about Collector's Edge real quick? It epitomized the sheer Bacchanalia of trading cards in the 90s. They were so over the top when it came to design, that a 12 year old boy would freak out over them. They were absolutely ridiculous. Also, there were 20000000 different sub sets within a set of cards. Card designs from Collector's Edge look exactly like drawings my 5-year-old niece does when she gets her hands on the glitter. ” -Howintensive
