Ravens Among Teams Eyeing Raiders' Crosby

The Baltimore Ravens are among seven teams reportedly interested in acquiring Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby, a five-time Pro Bowler who could be available via trade.

The Ravens join the Dallas Cowboys, Chicago Bears, Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots, Philadelphia Eagles, and L.A. Rams in expressing interest in Crosby, according to Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer. The Raiders, who hold the #1 overall pick in next month's draft, may consider trading their franchise cornerstone as they undergo a significant rebuild.

Crosby, who is understood to prefer joining a contender, could be a perfect fit for Baltimore, which is in need of a proven edge rusher. The Ravens were inches away from making the postseason last year, and adding a five-time Pro Bowler would address their most critical team need.
