Las Vegas Raiders and New England Patriots
New England Patriots Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Oakland acquired Richard Seymour from New England for its 2011 first-round pick. Seymour gave the Raiders four productive seasons, made two Pro Bowls in Oakland and supplied veteran credibility to an improving defensive front. New England waited two years and used the 17th overall pick on Nate Solder, a seven-year Patriots starter who helped win two Super Bowls, giving the Patriots the stronger long-term value without making Oakland's gamble a failure.
