The Raiders will receive two first-round picks from the Ravens, including the No. 14 pick in next month’s NFL Draft, according to a report.
Crosby, 28, had 10 sacks last season and reached double figures four times in his seven seasons.

The Raiders last made the playoffs in 2021, but have gone 7-27 over the past two seasons. They have the No. 1 pick in the 2026 draft, which should bring them Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza.
The Ravens, meanwhile, are entering a new era, having fired longtime head coach John Harbaugh and replacing him with former Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter.
