The Dallas Cowboys have once again been linked with the Las Vegas Raiders in trade speculation involving star pass rusher Maxx Crosby. Former Cowboys scout Bryan Broaddus suggested Dallas should offer a first-round pick and George Pickens, arguing Crosby would transform the defense. However, the proposal remains speculative, with concerns that losing Pickens would weaken the Cowboys' offense despite the potential defensive upgrade.The Dallas Cowboys continue to be linked with Maxx Crosby despite the Las Vegas Raiders showing no indication they want to move their star pass rusher. One proposed package has sparked debate, with former Cowboys scout Bryan Broaddus suggesting Dallas offer wide receiver George Pickens and a first-round draft pick in exchange for Crosby if the Raiders become willing to negotiate.CategoryDetailsPlayerMaxx CrosbyCurrent TeamLas Vegas RaidersRumored TeamDallas CowboysContract StatusUnder contract with the RaidersSalary Cap HitNot disclosed in the reportTrade LikelihoodSpeculativeLatest Insider UpdateBryan Broaddus proposed a package of George Pickens and a first-round pickPotential ReturnGeorge Pickens plus a first-round draft pickWhich teams are interested in Maxx Crosby?The Cowboys remain the team most frequently connected to Crosby, even after earlier attempts to acquire the Pro Bowl edge rusher failed. Dallas has spent the offseason looking for ways to strengthen its defense, particularly at edge rusher, where adding an elite player could transform the front.Crosby would immediately fit alongside an already talented defensive line, giving the Cowboys another disruptive presence capable of changing games. While other clubs could show interest if the Raiders ever opened trade discussions, Dallas has consistently surfaced as the most aggressive potential suitor.What insiders are saying about the trade rumorsThe latest proposal came from former Cowboys scout Bryan Broaddus during an appearance on 105.3 The Fan."I would offer a one and Pickens to the Raiders," Broaddus said. "I think, to me, I know Pickens was incredible last year, but the one thing that is holding you back is this defense. You add him [Crosby] to this defense."The suggestion reflects how highly Crosby is valued around the league. However, it remains an opinion rather than an indication that negotiations are taking place. The Raiders have not suggested they are actively shopping their defensive star.Contract details and salary cap implicationsCrosby remains under contract with Las Vegas, giving the Raiders full control over his future. The Yahoo Sports report does not specify his remaining salary or cap figures, and there is no indication of a no-trade clause limiting potential discussions.For Dallas, completing such a move would require balancing draft capital, player value and future salary cap planning. Including Pickens in a deal would also create another roster need at wide receiver.How the trade could impact both teamsIf the Cowboys somehow landed Crosby, their defense would gain one of the NFL's premier pass rushers, potentially elevating the unit into one of the league's best. The trade, though, would come at a steep cost.Moving Pickens would leave CeeDee Lamb without an established running mate, increasing pressure on younger receivers to take on larger roles. For the Raiders, acquiring a proven receiver along with a first-round pick could accelerate a roster rebuild while adding long-term flexibility. Whether either side would seriously consider that price remains the biggest question.
