Jason Campbell named the Oakland Raiders most impactful draft-day trade

For a time, the Oakland Raiders looked like Jason Campbell would lead them to the AFC Playoffs. Campbell came to the Raiders on Day 3 of the 2010 NFL Draft, as the team traded away a fourth round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft to the Washington Redskins for his services.

12 days later, Oakland would waive former No. 1 overall pick Jamarcus Russell, who would go down in history as one of the biggest draft busts the NFL has ever seen. In Campbell, the Raiders were getting a solid starter, and he proved his worth over the next two seasons.
