Trade rumors have been swirling around Las Vegas Raiders star edge rusher Maxx Crosby this offseason. According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, the Raiders would want a package similar to what the Dallas Cowboys gave up to acquire linebacker Micah Parsons in order to part with Crosby.

Why it matters

Crosby is one of the top pass rushers in the NFL, making the Pro Bowl in 2022 and 2023. If he were to be traded, it would significantly impact the Raiders' defense and create a bidding war among contending teams looking to add an elite edge rusher.

The details

Schultz reported that the Raiders would want a package similar to what the Cowboys gave up to draft Micah Parsons in 2021 - a first-round pick, a third-round pick, and two future day-two picks. Crosby, 25, is entering the final year of his rookie contract and the Raiders may look to maximize his trade value before he hits free agency.
