The Ravens have never before traded a 1st round pick and like the Bucs under Licht prioritized building through the draft. Now they traded not one, but two 1st round picks to get Crosby, the top edge rusher in free agency.
The Ravens were 8-9 in 2025 and for next season they were (before the trade)
11 to 1 to win the Super Bowl
+500 to win the conference
-125 to win the division
10.5 O/U on wins
So, does the Crosby trade substantially move the needle for them? If so, how much?
They gave up a #14 pick and whatever 2027 turns out to be.
This exact trade was too much for most Bucs fans posting here so now we get to see it play out, albeit with a team arguably closer to a SB than the Bucs (35 to 1 SB)
I think they are closer to contenders than we are. Their defense has more star power.
I think Raiders fleeced this trade tho but ultimately they see Lamar probably having a 2 year window so why not go for it?
