Jacksonville Jaguars Win
Summary: Jacksonville traded DE Quentin Groves — who never developed — to Las Vegas/Oakland Raiders for a 2010 5th-round pick (158th, Matt Tennant). Analysis: Groves was a failed 2nd-round investment from 2008. Getting any draft return — even a late 5th — for a bust is satisfactory asset recovery. The D grade is overstated for Jacksonville — this is a competent exit from a failed investment. Grade revised to C.
