It’s not over until it’s over, and even though it appears edge-rusher Maxx Crosby is happy to be back with the Las Vegas Raiders<\/a>, and they’re pumped to have him, it’s only for as long as these two parties think it’s working.<\/p>\n During the offseason, of course, the Raiders traded Crosby to the Baltimore Ravens in a deal that ultimately fell through, due to Crosby failing a physical. Now, Crosby is back and energized. It’s the start of a new season, and the Raiders have two new quarterbacks: Kirk Cousins and Fernando Mendoza.<\/p>\n But, a trade isn’t totally off the table. Here are three teams that, in theory, could still make a late move for Crosby.<\/p>\n Crosby could still be traded, and these teams may have interest.<\/p>\n The Dallas Cowboys<\/a> were one of the teams buzzed about most when Crosby was a trade target during the offseason. They still make sense as a potential landing spot. Owner Jerry Jones is usually into the idea of major trades when he believes his team is close to making a Super Bowl run, and Crosby would be a fantastic addition.<\/p>\n The Cowboys have shown interest in Crosby before. Dallas reportedly was willing to offer the Raiders the No. 12 overall pick and a second-round selection<\/a>, showing just how highly the team has valued him.<\/p>\n Ben Johnson and the Chicago Bears<\/a> could also make sense if they’re willing to pay the price for an elite pass-rusher. Chicago already made a major move for Montez Sweat, but adding Crosby would give the defense a real push, and the Bears defense could use someone like Crosby.<\/p>\n ESPN’s Adam Schefter recently reignited this idea of Crosby to the Bears. He said that he believes<\/a> Vegas will trade him during the season if they aren’t doing well and shook his head in agreement that the Bears would be a solid landing spot.<\/p>\n The San Francisco 49ers<\/a> are another team that could make a push. San Francisco is in win-now mod. The 49ers have a really tough division, with the Los Angeles Rams<\/a> now having Myles Garrett and the Seattle Seahawks<\/a> coming off a Super Bowl win.<\/p>\n What would help the 49ers and also intimidate their competition in the NFC West would be a bad boy addition like Crosby. Oft-injured star pass-rusher Nick Bosa is coming off a season in which he was limited to just three games due to injury, and he’s dealing with a knee issue<\/a> in training camp. With Bosa sidelined, the 49ers had only 20 sacks last season, which ranked last in the league. Crosby could completement Bosa or serve as strong injury insurance.<\/p>\n So, will any of these teams trade for Crosby? We won’t know for a while. But, don’t count them out of the race.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nDallas Cowboys<\/h3>\n
