This move essentially screws the Raiders out of some draft slotting and gives the Broncos a 7th and a player that will either start or, more likely, be a part of the D-line rotation, and it only cost the Broncos a 5th in return.

It's really a win for the Patriots, a win for the Broncos and a loss for the Raiders.
Thanks for saving me the typing exercise.

I note that I doubt the Raiders were under any illusions about the Pats not finding a way to give them a 5th and get back their 4th.
