Mike Florio

This isn't Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams.

This is Clint Kubiak and quarterback TBD with a lot of holes in the roster.

By the time they become competitive, we're going to be

close to the end, if not past the end, of Max Crosby's prime.

Sell high, get what you can for him now, and then try to use those draft picks to build a contending team.

Well, Glazer suggested that Max Crosby could fetch more on the trade market than Michael Parsons did.

And if you do it early in the offseason, if you do it before teams have spent their cap money.

If you do it at a time where everyone can be a little more deliberate and the process can play out a little bit more and you can get more teams to the table, maybe you can get more.

Because at the end of the day, the options for Jerry Jones and the Cowboys when it came to Michael Parsons were the Packers and the Eagles.

And there was no way in hell the Cowboys were going to trade Michael Parsons to the Eagles.

So you do it early.

You get at least a one.

It's a one plus.

A one plus what?

That remains to be seen, and a lot of that's going to be driven by what kind of a competition emerges for Max Crosby's services.

But he plays the second most important position in football at the pro level.

Quarterback and guy who disrupts the quarterback, those are the two most important positions.

So could they get two first-round picks?

There's a chance they could.

Now, one wrinkle is, hey, he's got a contract through 2029 at favorable numbers, but...
