Maxx Crosby has been traded, but not to the Seahawks
· Yahoo Sports
Any thought of Maxx Crosby joining the Seattle Seahawks in a blockbuster move to bolster an already fearsome defensive line can be put to rest. On the plus side, Crosby won’t be crossing over to any Seahawks rival in the NFC.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter unleashed the big Friday night report that the Las Vegas Raiders have agreed to send the superstar pass rusher to the Baltimore Ravens for a pair of first-round picks.

After yet another losing season, another head coaching change, and another dysfunctional year in Las Vegas, it was clear that Crosby’s days with the Raiders were coming to an end. There were no shortage of suitors even at lat season’s trade deadline, with the Seattle Seahawks heavily linked to Crosby’s services. Obviously there was no chance Seattle was going to dip into the “trade two first-round picks” well again, but evidently Mike Macdonald’s former team was willing to take that big swing to address their shockingly moribund pass rush. This is the first time in Ravens history that they’ve ever traded a first-round pick for a player.
Bad luck to the Dallas Cowboys, who weren’t willing to go that far to get Crosby, but maybe they can make a run at free agent Trey Hendrickson and not even have to give up a draft pick.
The Cowboys were willing to offer a first- and second-round pick to the Raiders for Maxx Crosby but, logically and understandably, Las Vegas opted for the two first-round picks from the Ravens. https://t.co/v6z4Uum1Lh

The Raiders now hold the No. 1 and No. 14 overall pick in this year’s draft. They no longer hold Maxx Crosby, which also means the Seahawks won’t be seeing him as an opponent unless it’s Seattle vs. Baltimore in Super Bowl 61.
