Ravens Grab Crosby: Steelers' AFC North Hopes Dim
7 Mar
Summary
- Ravens acquired Maxx Crosby from Raiders for draft picks.
- Crosby's addition significantly challenges the Steelers' offense.
- Pittsburgh must respond aggressively to stay competitive.

The AFC North landscape has shifted dramatically with the Baltimore Ravens acquiring Maxx Crosby from the Las Vegas Raiders. This significant trade, involving first-round draft picks in 2026 and 2027, positions Baltimore as a formidable opponent for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Crosby, a 28-year-old edge rusher who recorded 10.0 sacks in the 2025 season, will directly challenge Pittsburgh's offensive tackles twice annually. This poses a substantial hurdle for players like Troy Fautanu and whoever secures the left tackle position, especially with Broderick Jones sidelined due to a season-ending neck injury sustained in November.
