The writer, Bill Williamson, admits that he doesn’t particularly love any of the offers that they received. They received 6 total offers, our offer had been floated around previously: the Bears 2026 first, the Bears 2027 third, and WR DJ Moore.
After parsing through the offers, Williamson felt that Windy City Gridiron’s offer was the best, but he certainly wasn’t enthusiastic about it.
Williamson wrote: “If you’re going to play with Crosby in 2026, you’re going to need some immediate firepower. I get that the 2027 draft is considered better overall than this year, and the Raiders are in a rebuild, so later picks will be of value. Still, we want more now. To be honest, I don’t see the Raiders agreeing to any of these deals. So, I’m not either. If Crosby pushes the matter and forces a deal, I think I like Windy City Gridiron’s offer the best.”
I think how this played out may be similar to how it plays out in real life. No, I am not saying that Crosby will be a Bear, but I am saying, I think it’s definitely possible that the Raiders don’t receive an offer they want to accept, and the only reason they do is if Crosby forces their hand and tells them he 100% wants out.
Many insiders think that if Crosby is moved, it will be before the new league year, so this next week should certainly be interesting.
