Raiders' Asking Price for Maxx Crosby Remains High Ahead of Trade Deadline

As the NFL trade deadline approaches on November 10, discussions surrounding Las Vegas Raiders pass-rusher Maxx Crosby have reportedly diminished. The Raiders are believed to be holding firm on their asking price, which remains at two first-round draft picks.

This asking price was initially set back in March when the Raiders accepted an offer from the Baltimore Ravens, who later withdrew due to concerns about Crosby's knee injury. An unnamed NFL general manager indicated that the Raiders are unlikely to accept a lower offer, emphasizing Crosby's continued dominance on the field.

Despite the ongoing trade speculation, Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak noted that the team is still in contention for a playoff spot, which may influence their decision to retain key players like Crosby. The Raiders are currently on a four-game losing streak and are set to face the New York Jets, a matchup that could impact their playoff aspirations.
