Experts Suggest Two Can Resolve Crosby-Raiders Dispute

According to Carpenter, the ongoing speculation within the NFL indicates that Crosby’s availability is a topic of discussion. He revealed this insight during a recent episode of the Las Vegas Raiders Insider podcast. While the Raiders organization publicly expresses confidence in Crosby’s return, Carpenter believes only two individuals hold the key to mending the fractured relationship: Maxx Crosby himself and Tom Brady.

Current Situation and Recovery

Crosby is currently recovering from a meniscus repair, which could impact his health for several months. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport explained that this week’s developments will be crucial for determining the next steps in Crosby’s career. Conversations between Crosby’s agents and Raiders GM John Spytek are expected to provide more clarity on his situation.

Potential Trade Value

Should Crosby be traded, estimates of his market value range significantly. Some speculate he could fetch a late first-round pick, while others suggest a more substantial package, potentially involving multiple first-round picks and a player. Several teams might consider acquiring Crosby, including:

• Bears
• 49ers
• Patriots
• Cowboys
• Lions

The Chicago Bears appear to have the greatest need for a player like Crosby, who boasts a proven track record as a pass rusher. Meanwhile, the San Francisco 49ers have the organizational leadership to meet the Raiders’ expectations for a trade. Though the New England Patriots could potentially offer substantial assets, it might be unfavorable for Brady to send a key player to a rival AFC team.

As the NFL offseason progresses, the dynamics surrounding Crosby will continue to unfold, keeping fans and analysts on edge regarding his future.
