The Raiders got a huge haul as they received a 2026 first-round pick (No. 14 overall) and a 2027 first-round pick for Crosby.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Crosby\u2019s future became in question in late December when the team shut him down for the final two games because of a knee injury that he ended up having surgery for. Crosby said he wants to play and briefly left the team because of his anger. He has often said he was tiring of losing and he wants to win now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Crosby, who turns 29 in August, is one of the NFL\u2019s best overall defensive ends. He excels against the pass and the run.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Crosby was a terrific value for the Raiders, who drafted him in the fourth round in 2019. Crosby had 69.5 sacks and was one of the NFL leaders in tackles for loss in his time with the Raiders. Crosby, who overcame issues with alcohol after his rookie season, became a team leader and a pillar of the community for the franchise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A move that has been brewing for months has finally happened \u2014 superstar pass-rusher Maxx Crosby is a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":207201,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[19186,143,145,144],"class_list":["post-209235","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-oakland","tag-las-vegas-raiders-news","tag-oakland","tag-oakland-headlines","tag-oakland-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209235","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=209235"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209235\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/207201"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=209235"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=209235"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=209235"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
