Hearing from a fry cook in Vegas that Maxx said he is being traded. But hearing from his gardener that Maxx said his services will not be needed next month.

For what it is worth.

Rams
Bills
Patriots
Niners

...being in western New York, bills country, I can't see any way that the bills would be in play, as the first priority appears to be to get a top target for Allen, and with what will be a tight cap after some reshuffling, 2 starting O lineman on the market, TE Dalton, who was signed as a 1st, but with Kincaid, is now viewed as overpaid and could be released if he doesn't take a pay cut, needs at linebacker and with their CB top pick from last year, I think, possibly having a career threatening neck (?) injury, and in an already thin db group, I have a hard time seeing them trying to make than kind of move, rather than trying to plug in a guy like bosa again....

I think Maxx goes to Dallas. They have the picks and Maxx could put them over the top in the Division.

Send us 12 and 20 Jerry.

Agree with rabidraider. Cowboys are $57.0mm over the cap. I think a trade would involve Pickens, a first round pick in 26 and a pick in 27 for Maxx and possibly Tucker.

The Athletic’s Mike Silver believes Maxx Crosby has “exhausted all efforts” with the Raiders.

It appears Crosby’s time with the Raiders has drawn to a close, with Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer reporting Monday that Crosby could be traded out of Vegas this week. “Crosby hasn’t made a stink publicly, partly because of his deep affection for the Raiders’ fan base, but it’s clear that he has exhausted all efforts in Vegas,” Silver said. “He’s had a new boss every 12 seconds, with one winning season out of seven to show for it.” The Raiders, meanwhile “aren’t assuring [Crosby] they’ll accept the best offer they receive or solicit his input as to where he’d prefer to play” in 2026, Silver reports. It’s a tense situation that could extend beyond the NFL Draft and perhaps into the summer or even the regular season, he added. Crosby had 10 sacks and 12 QB hits over 15 games in 2025. He would be a major addition to any defense in search of a pass rushing upgrade.

He eagerly signed a fat new contract (at the time) 364 days ago. He is in no position to assume we're going to cater to his every demand and dump him detriment to the team. If he wants out at this juncture, he needs to accept he has little control over it and we're only going to do it if its good business for the teams future. If it's this really as big of a deal to him, he should have not signed that contract March 5th, 2025.

This doesn't make any sense at all Attyla, the Yanks don't need a point guard.

So not trading Crosby is a sign of dysfunction according to Silver? Lol.

I've never understood the idea that bad teams should jettison their best talent in hopes that they can get good talent later, through the draft.

It's very self contradicting in my eyes. "In order to get good talent, you have to get rid of your best talent".

Other than the Cowboys with Hershel Walker, I'm not so sure there are many examples of this actually working.
