Trade 1 of 3

Houston Texans and Las Vegas Raiders

Las Vegas Raiders Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Houston paid second- and third-round picks for Phillip Buchanon, betting that the 2002 first-rounder would become a long-term starting corner. Instead, Buchanon started six games in 2005, played four more for Houston in 2006 and was released. Oakland turned one of the incoming picks into five-year starting linebacker Kirk Morrison and used the other in another draft-day exchange, making this a clear Raiders victory.

Assets Received

Las Vegas Raiders
  • Pick 2005 2nd round pick (47th overall subsequently traded, Mike Nugent)
  • Pick 2005 3rd round pick (78th overall, Kirk Morrison)
Houston Texans
  • Player Phillip Buchanon

Trade 2 of 3

Las Vegas Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Las Vegas Raiders Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Tampa Bay moved from No. 42 to No. 39 in 2010 for receiver Arrelious Benn, sending Oakland an additional fifth-round pick. Benn's career was derailed by injuries. Oakland turned No. 42 into picks 44 and 190, selecting Lamarr Houston and Travis Goethel, and used the fifth-round asset in the Kirk Morrison deal that helped produce Jacoby Ford. The Raiders converted the trade-down into substantially more value.

Assets Received

Las Vegas Raiders
  • Pick 2010 2nd round pick (42nd overall; traded to New England for 2010 picks 44 and 190, used on Lamarr Houston and Travis Goethel; New England later selected Rob Gronkowski at 42)
  • Pick 2010 5th round pick (153rd overall; packaged with Kirk Morrison to Jacksonville for 2010 pick 108, used on Jacoby Ford; Jacksonville later selected Austen Lane at 153)
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
  • Pick 2010 2nd round pick (39th overall, Arrelious Benn)

Trade 3 of 3

Las Vegas Raiders and Jacksonville Jaguars

Jacksonville Jaguars Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Jacksonville sent the 108th pick to Oakland for veteran linebacker Kirk Morrison and pick No. 153, then used the fifth-rounder on Austen Lane. Morrison started all 16 games in 2010, while Lane developed into a multi-year defensive-line contributor. Oakland’s Jacoby Ford was an explosive receiver and returner, including three kickoff-return touchdowns as a rookie, making this a competitive trade that Jacksonville wins narrowly.

Assets Received

Las Vegas Raiders
  • Pick 2010 4th round pick (108th overall, Jacoby Ford)
Jacksonville Jaguars
  • Player Kirk Morrison
  • Pick 2010 5th round pick (153rd overall, Austen Lane)
