The Las Vegas Raiders are exploring a trade that would send star pass rusher Maxx Crosby to the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for emerging wide receiver George Pickens. Evaluated by Cowboys insider Bryan Broaddus, this hypothetical proposal suggests the Raiders aim for future assets with a potential rebuild in mind. Crosby, a five-time Pro Bowler, has been a key player for the Raiders but may not be enough to secure playoff contention this season. While the trade is unlikely to happen before the 2026-27 season, midseason discussions could take place as both teams assess their needs.
