The Las Vegas Raiders have reportedly established a monumental asking price for star edge rusher Maxx Crosby, seeking a return of two first-round draft picks and an established player, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
The report, which emerged Thursday during the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, indicates that the Raiders are leveraging Crosby's elite status to potentially secure a historic haul. The move comes as the organization undergoes a significant transition under new head coach Klint Kubiak. The Raiders currently hold the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft and are widely expected to target Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza to lead their offense.
League insiders suggest that the Raiders are using the recent trade of Micah Parsons—which reportedly saw the Dallas Cowboys receive a similar package—as the benchmark for any deal involving Crosby. While Crosby remains one of the most productive pass rushers in the league, the potential for a full-scale roster reset has made him a primary name to watch as the new league year approaches in March. Several Super Bowl contenders are expected to inquire about the three-time Pro Bowler’s availability given the high-stakes nature of the current trade market.
