Raiders' Maxx Crosby Trade: Bears Favorites

0:00From NFL coverage, this is your March 4th update. The Las Vegas Raiders face a big decision this NFL offseason on whether to trade star past Russia Max Crosby. Reports say they're holding firm on a high-asking price of two first round draft picks plus a player. Several teams have shown interest, but the Raiders are sending mixed messages about actually pulling the trigger. Earlier this week, insiders noted the price mirrors what the Dallas Cowboys got from Michael Parsons last year, when Green Bay sent over two firsts and a, top defensive tackle. Crosby, though, turns 29 next season and just had meniscus surgery. He's got just one year with over 12.5 sacks, unlike the younger, more consistent Parsons. Raiders fans love Crosby, but he's grown frustrated after seven seasons with only one winning year. He's played under five head coaches already, with a six coming up. The team is rebuilding around quarterback prospect Fernando Mendoza, expected to be the top pick in the 2026 draft.

1:01Trading him could stockpile young talent to build around Mendoza. A win-now team makes the most sense for Crosby, who could boost any defense right away. Draft Kings recently listed the Chicago Bears as the favorites to land him. Chicago made a deep playoff run last year, but needs edge rush help. Crosby fits perfectly to raise their ceiling for years ahead if the Raiders decide to deal. The daily news now is powered by our sponsor, link in the description.
