Trade 2 of 2
Oakland acquired defensive tackle Dave Rowe from San Diego for a 1976 fourth-round choice. Rowe became a major immediate success, starting 28 games across the 1976 and 1977 seasons and anchoring the middle of the Raiders defense during their Super Bowl XI championship year. San Diego used the pick on Ron Singleton, a useful lineman, but Rowe’s championship contribution gives Oakland the edge.
