Las Vegas Raiders and New York Jets
The Raiders acquired Russell Carter for a future sixth-round pick, hoping the former first-round defensive back could stabilize their secondary. Carter played only two more NFL seasons and did not become a long-term Raiders piece. The sixth-round selection Los Angeles surrendered became Marvin Washington, a durable Jets starter for eight seasons, making the opportunity cost much larger than the original price suggested.
