Note

Reported March 5, 1998. Six-time Pro Bowl CB Eric Allen forced his way out of New Orleans after clashing with coach Mike Ditka; the Raiders (then Oakland) acquired him for a 1998 fourth-round pick (No. 97, G Fred Weary) and signed him to a 3-yr/$8M extension on April 15. Allen's career revived in Oakland: 5 interceptions in 10 games in 1998, and he led the league with 3 pick-sixes in 2000.
