NFL Trade Verdict
Oakland Raiders Win
The Raiders-New York Jets exchange brought Steve Tannen; Carl Garrett to Oakland Raiders and sent out 1977 seventh round pick (#195-Kevin Long (Fernando)); 1977 eleventh round pick (#307-Dave Butterfield). On hindsight value, this leans to the Raiders on long-term football value; the assigned Raiders grade reflects the same valuation-. The surrendered draft-capital component is central to the final grade
