Deal for Raiders: They almost had to move Morrison after drafting Rolando McClain, but they are selling him too cheap here (seems like a theme of the offseason). I know the Raiders’ weren’t great on defense last year, but Morrison was one of their best (along with Nmandi Ashmouga and Richard Seymour). In fact, I don’t even think McClain is much of an upgrade over him, especially in a 4-3. The only issue with Morrison is he only has one more year left on his deal.

Grade: C- 

Deal for Jaguars: The Jaguars made some stupid draft choices, but this trade was smart. They wanted Rolando McClain at 10, but Morrison is not really much worse than McClain and, if they can resign him longterm (doubtful given their financial issues), this is a very good deal. If they can’t, it’s just a 4th rounder and Morrison helps them short term. Plus, I like Austin Lane, who they didn’t with that 5th rounder, just for the record.
