The Raiders will receive two first-round picks from the Ravens, including the No. 14 overall 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 appeared in the playoffs in 2021, but have gone 7-27 the past two seasons. They have the No. 1 pick in the 2026 draft, which is expected to give them Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza.

Meanwhile, the Ravens are entering a new era, after firing head coach John Harbaugh and replacing him with former Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter.
