Maxx Crosby trade talks centre on potential move from Raiders to 49ers

The Las Vegas Raiders are reportedly willing to trade All‑Pro edge rusher Maxx Crosby to the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for a 2027 first‑round draft pick, a 2028 second‑round pick and second‑year defensive end Mykel Williams. This framework follows a failed March deal with the Baltimore Ravens, which fell apart after Crosby did not pass a physical.

Crosby has faced repeated speculation about his future, while the 49ers, plagued by injuries to key pass rushers, aim to bolster their defense. In a separate encounter, a young 49ers fan asked Crosby directly if he would join the team; Crosby laughed and replied he could not, but the incident underscored the public interest in the possible trade.
