Las Vegas Raiders and San Francisco 49ers
Las Vegas Raiders Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
San Francisco moved from No. 46 to No. 57 and also sent Oakland the 124th pick, selecting defensive end Israel Ifeanyi at 46. Ifeanyi’s NFL career was brief and injuries prevented the 49ers from getting lasting value. Oakland used No. 57 on Lance Johnstone, who became a productive pass rusher, while No. 124 remained useful trade currency. The Raiders received the best player and an extra asset, making this a clear Oakland win.
New England Patriots Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Oakland reacquired the 57th pick from New England and used it on pass rusher Lance Johnstone, who became a productive Raider and eventually recorded 72 career sacks. The Patriots received picks 76, 124 and 149. New England later turned No. 76 into a package that included the selection used on Tedy Bruschi, while the other picks added depth. Johnstone was a real hit, but New England extracted the broader and more consequential return.
