Raiders are telling teams they're not trading Crosby

[ChuckA1]

What teams? Not sure there is much interest anymore with their demands.

There's no doubt there is still interest.

Correct, that's why to where it was during the trade deadline last year, They couldn't get what they wanted because their price was too high They found one sucker to do it and that sucker realized they were being suckered and backed out..

If they want him gone, they will lower their expectations for compensation, that's it, I mean I think if the I would give the Cowboys #20 this year for him, that's it, that's the most Id offer.

I realize is needed in fully heal yet from the surgery and that's expected, but I believe they found more in there ,I don't remember if you can remember what went on with Eric Berry, and it's good that the Cowboys didn't bring him in Even though the fans were crying for him they'll, because his degenerative knee issue was serious, It only going to get worse..

So, while you might get a really Good year out of Crosby, That might be it, it's a big investment ,taking a risk like that, on a knee that may never be right no matter how many surgeries he has...

The meniscus is one thing but being extensive wear and tear.. That dust doesn't go away.

He requested a trade. It’s the Raiders who should be mad. They traded him to a good team. That team decided not to do the deal. The Raiders didn’t back out. He’s not requesting a trade now. How did the Raiders burn bridges?

Going back to last season when Crosby wanted to play and they shut him down. He was not happy with the organization and the direction they were heading in either. There was a general feeling Crosby was tired of the Raiders. Having said that, they've reshaped the roster in free agency and are getting their QB in Mendoza so that could change Crosby's outlook.

I’m guessing no one is offering more than we did.

I’m sure there’s interest but not at the price they want. Two firsts is no longer an option. If the got a first and future second I’d say that’s best offer they get.

If they sign Cousins so as not to rush Mendoza it will signal they’re intent on doing things right.

 

[TwentyOne]

Lol.

no way! Who wouldve thought.

 

[Zekeats]

The Raiders are giving the Cowboys a run for their money for the NFL’s worst front office.

Why? They got 2 firsts, deal got declined, not gonna get 2 firsts or close to it and now so they'll keep the player and move on. Trust me, they are in much better shape than we are.

Could this bea possibility with the Crosby situation. He is still available if anyone inquires, but it is as others have indicated conditional on how Mendoza does.

If the Raiders suck badly this year could it be that they may look to jettison some assets while they still have some value. So Crosby for a first later in the year?

 

[Johannes44]

The raiders will be lucky to get a coupon for the blue plate special for him.

 

[Joe Realist]

That could be true and we will know by draft time

Or even 1 first lol

 

[Rayman70]

Mark Davis certainly is son of AL. Lol...nobody holds a grudge better or longer than Father and son. That said the Ravens look shady but I wonder if they discovered something about Crosby that put them off , moreso than his knees. Something don't add up. Raiders will be dangerous if Mendoza turns into a guy fairly fast.

The Ravens knew all about this surgery. Good luck to them ever finding another trade partner. They totally screwed the Raiders, Cowboys, and Max Crosby. This will not be forgotten.
