It appears the Buffalo Bills could get a second chance at landing Maxx Crosby.
The Bills had reportedly made an offer to the Las Vegas Raiders for their star edge rusher, but the Raiders went with the higher offer from the Baltimore Ravens. After the trade was scrapped in development that rocked the NFL world on Tuesday, the Bills appear to have another shot at pulling off the trade.
Bills in the Mix for Maxx Crosby
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Tuesday night that the Raiders, while still hoping to keep Crosby, are willing to entertain new offers.
“Raiders already have received calls from ‘several’ teams inquiring about the availability of Maxx Crosby in a trade, per source,” Schefter reported. “For now the Raiders are prepared to get Crosby healthy and have him play for Las Vegas. But they are listening to other teams.”
Initial reports indicated that the Ravens backed out of the trade following the results of Crosby’s physical, but it’s not clear whether he failed or if the Ravens didn’t like what they saw.
Crosby’s agent, CJ LaBoy, took to social media on Tuesday to dispel any notion that he was not healthy. LaBoy wrote that after suffering a meniscus injury that ended his season with two games left, Crosby “continues to be on track in his recovery and if anything is ahead of schedule according to his surgeon Dr Neal El Attrache. Maxx remains on track to return during the offseason program & will undoubtedly return as the dominant game wrecker he has been these past 7 seasons.”
The Bills had been in the mix for Crosby before, with insider Albert Breer of SI.com reporting that they just fell short of the offer from the Ravens. The Bills picked too late in the first round to pull off the trade, he noted.
“A dividing line for the Raiders was where the picks being discussed landed in the first round,” Breer wrote. “The Cowboys held the 12th pick, while the Ravens had the 14th selection. And it led to teams bowing out. The Bills were the most prominent example, holding the 26th pick, which was 500 points on the Jimmy Johnson draft chart, less valuable than Dallas’s pick, and 400 points less valuable than Baltimore’s pick.”
Bills Could Jump at Lower Price
The Bills have been seeking an impact player in the pass-rushing group for years, and SI.com’s Alex Brasky suggested that they could find it in Crosby.
“The Bills haven’t had a player record 10 or more sacks in a season since Leonard Floyd recorded 10.5 during the 2023 season,” Brasky wrote. “Greg Rousseau led the Bills in sacks a year ago with seven, while Buffalo finished 20th in the NFL with 36 sacks as a team in 2025.”
Crosby could come at a lower asking price after the failed trade with the Ravens, he suggested.
“If healthy, Crosby would bring an immediate boost to the Bills’ pass rush and could be quite the addition at the right price,” Brasky wrote. “A 2026 first-rounder and 2027 second-rounder could do the trick, and if so, the Bills should consider it.”
