Ravens Trade for Crosby, Negotiate with Linderbaum
About this episode
The Baltimore Ravens make a blockbuster trade, acquiring star edge rusher Maxx Crosby from the Las Vegas Raiders. This marks the first time in franchise history the Ravens have traded first-round picks for a single player. Crosby brings an impressive resume, with sixty-nine and a half sacks over seven seasons and five Pro Bowl nods. Fans are thrilled, as it finally shores up their edge rusher spot with no lingering worries. Meanwhile, negotiations are heating up for center Tyler Linderbaum, who is days from free agency. The Ravens are offering a market-setting deal around eighteen to twenty million dollars annually, while Linderbaum wants twenty-five million. Restructuring Crosbys thirty million dollar cap hit in two thousand twenty-six, plus Lamar Jacksons deal, could free up space to keep him.

It's March 7th. Here's your NFL news in 2 minutes. Subscribe to stay locked in all season. Buffalo Bill's Center, Conor McGovern, is reportedly heading back to the team on a 4-year deal, worth $52 million, including $32 million, and guaranteed money. This comes just days after he told reporters there had been no contract talks with General Manager Brandon Bean. With free agency starting next week, the deadline pushed things into motion for the bills. McGovern has turned into one of the top centers in the league over the last couple of seasons. His strong connection with quarterback Josh Allen on snaps, line adjustments, and plays like the Tish push makes him a key piece up front. Losing him would have hurt, especially alongside free agent left guard David Edwards, who likely won't return. The bills lack proven backups on the roster, like Rookie Sedred Van Prang Ranger, who's barely played. Keeping McGovern protects Josh Allen and running back James Cook during their Super Bowl push.
The 28-year-old has been rock solid, never missing a game due to injury, and allowing zero-sacks and over 1,350. Past blocking snaps the past two years, per pro football focus. His deal averages 13 million per year, third best at center, behind only the Chiefs, Creed Humphrey and Eagles Cam Jurgons. Meanwhile, Bean is juggling the salary cap, sitting about 13.5 million over the 300-1.2 million limit before this. Signing. He's already reword deals for players like Spencer Brown and Ed Oliver, with more room coming from Josh Allen's contract to fuel other moves. Dan N. is sponsored by our partner.
