→ Denver Broncos Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Los Angeles Raiders and Denver Broncos completed this exchange on 1993-04-14. The Broncos used the acquired No. This was not a disastrous veteran purchase for Los Angeles, because a third-round pick was a reasonable cost for a back with a recent 1,000-yard season. Following the acquired picks only through moves actually made by the receiving clubs, the overall result is Denver Broncos Win.
Assets Received
- Pick 1993 third round pick (#69-Rondell Jones)
