Patriots could pounce on rare trade chance for dominant defensive game-changer
"Not much has been said about their plans directly from Mike Vrabel and Co., but more intriguing names continue to pop up that would be excellent additions to inquire about. Most conversation has surrounded wide receivers and running backs, and while either position makes sense for the Patriots right now, adding a legitimate threat in the pass rush could be considered the best use of their league-high remaining cap space this year."
"They now have a new potential trade target to call about, as NFL analyst and insider Trey Wingo revealed that the Raiders are receiving calls about the availability of EDGE Maxx Crosby. Although he only mentioned that the Cowboys have called so far, it implies there might be a chance that offers for the veteran could be considered. Breaking: according to sources the @dallascowboys have made inquiries with the @Raiders about a potential trade for Maxx Crosby- trey wingo (@wingoz) October 21, 2025"
The Patriots possess league-high remaining cap space and face speculation about trade-deadline moves before November 4. Pass rush emerges as a primary area for potential improvement over receivers or running backs. Raiders are reportedly receiving calls about EDGE Maxx Crosby, with the Cowboys confirmed to have inquired. The Cowboys hold an extra first-round pick after trading Micah Parsons, which the Raiders would likely seek. Crosby's contract is favorable, and the Patriots' defense could benefit from his addition. Current Patriots pass-rushers Harold Landry III and K'Lavon Chaisson have shown promise but leave room for upgrade.
