Buchanonnotgonnaworkhereanymore
The Raiders traded Phillip Buchanon to the Texans for a 2nd round and a 3rd round draft pick. Buchanon was picked in the 1st round of the 2002 draft, and made an immediate and huge impact on their defense and special teams. However, he broke his leg just a few games into the season, missed the playoffs and came back the next season seemingly lost. He was always available to make the big play, but he too often gave it up as well. I really think if he had never broken his leg, he would have been a Hall of Famer. Everytime he touched the ball he was liable to score. Unfortunately, he did not perform to his abilities and the Raiders are probably glad to pick up those two draft picks for him.
