Ravens change trade strategy after failed Maxx Crosby deal
Summary

The Baltimore Ravens adjusted their trading approach following a failed attempt to acquire Maxx Crosby from the Las Vegas Raiders. The deal fell through after Crosby failed his physical, leading the Ravens to take extra precautions in their acquisition of center Cam Jurgens from the Philadelphia Eagles. Baltimore traded a 2028 second-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round pick for Jurgens, who has a recent history of back surgery. Jurgens passed his physical but will miss the upcoming game against the Atlanta Falcons due to a concussion. The Ravens' experience with Crosby has prompted a more cautious strategy in future trades.
