This potential move could reshape the team's future and provide stability for the rookie.
“… took his number down. Now they freed up $13 million in cap space. they front load him it's a bad situation I feel bad for Max I feel bad for the Raiders because I can just imagine Ocho you in the building Just imagine you in the building and they tell you it not going to happen That has to stop. What? The knee. Yeah, we know but we see some degeneration that we think is going to be further long than we'd like. Right.

Now they freed up $13 million in cap space. they front load him it's a bad situation I feel bad for Max I feel bad for the Raiders because I can just imagine Ocho you in the building Just imagine you in the building and they tell you it not going to happen That has to stop.

Max Crosby's trade situation is complicated as the Raiders face salary cap issues, making a trade unlikely. If they keep him, they might need to restructure his contract to alleviate financial strain, similar to tactics used by other teams. This scenario creates a messy situation for both Crosby and the Raiders, reminiscent of past trade failures in the NBA.
“… a house and inspection period, just like buying a car if you want to get the car fax. That's what happened. And they could, and it's nobody. The Raiders, doctors say he's fine. The Ravens, doctors say he's not fine. And the Ravens can pull out. That's a part of the process. So it just goes back to these players understanding that you're a commodity for a billion-dollar organization. And that's exactly what you are. It's sad to say, we talk about it all the time, they love you until that knee goes bad. They love you until you pop your shoulder out of place. And now you're not helping them win …”

And now you're not helping them win anymore, and they're going to continue to make billions of dollars a year. Yeah, I think so. Eric DaCosta said at the podium when all of this, when the trade was rescinded, it hasn't stopped my phone from ringing the way you conduct business.
