What led the Ravens to back out of the Maxx Crosby trade?
And the Raiders defense answers yet again. Max Crosby intercepting Caleb Williams. That from the barn burner of the 25-24 Raiders and Bears game. I'm sorry to laugh, but I have to bring this to the air. We were just talking about the concept of 2B. So, of course, I was talking to Marshall about it and Ray as well. And then Marshall goes, I can't believe some of these World Baseball Classic games are on 2B. To which I said, I watched a whole Super Bowl on 2B. And then I had to explain to Marshall that Fox owns Tubi. No, I knew Fox owned Tubi, but I thought that they weren't putting their actual network programming on Tubi. Isn't it supposed to be like everything else but the networks? But see, this is how they try and push people over to Tubi.
What issues did the Bears face with previous trades?
They give you a little sampling of the real stuff. Since we are talking about football, we're going to push them down the line down to Tubi. So that's how you try and get people to watch. You got to download a whole new app, though, if you don't have it. But Tubi is really convenient. I have Tubi, and there are many independent films on Tubi that are great to check out. I'm a fan. You should check them out. You should have Tubi already if you don't. A lot of reading class movies on Tubi. No, but Tubi has other stuff, too. Didn't they carry Gossip Girl for a minute? They did.
Why is Maxx Crosby's asking price a concern for potential trade?
They do have other programming. Yeah, so Tubi was our during the break conversation. And it's valid to you because World Baseball Classic games are on Tubi. And you might be surprised. And no, nobody's paying me to say this. It's a select number. It's just an interesting concept. We'll talk about the World Baseball Classic at 1125, by the way. This is Rahimi Harrison-Grody on 104.3 The Score. And I asked everybody to put your GM hat back on. Knowing what you know about the Max Crosby trade and how the Ravens backed out. And knowing that many reports indicate there was an issue with the physical. Let's also rewind back to when the Bears had an issue with the physical on an offensive lineman. That was back with the Larry Ogunjobi scenario, which I didn't think we would end up talking about.
Ogunjobi ended up playing...
What factors should the Bears consider in trading for Maxx Crosby?
over 110 games after that moment where the Bears had to back out of the trade, he ended up with the Steelers. And again, I think it just came down to the price. Was the contract or was the asking price worth what a team was willing to get in on based on the physicals? So I say that, asking the question again, knowing that the Bears did commit to backup defensive linemen in Gallimore and Street, knowing that the Bears still need a pass rush, are you back in on Max Crosby? Are you asking me, Layla Rahimi, if I'm back in on Max Crosby? Not just you, and you, the listener. 312-644-6767 is our number. My answer is very simple. I ain't never left. Like, what? I was the one saying, okay, now go get Trey Hendrickson because he's the most viable guy remaining.
Guess what? Go get him. Hendrickson now appears to be off the board as of 3 p.m. or so today when the actual new league year starts. So now you go get Max Crosby. And guess what? You don't even have to pay that much for him. So I guess the better question, Layla, is what are you willing to give up for Max Crosby?
How do backup defensive linemen impact the Bears' decision on Crosby?
Because some people, I understand, it's going to be absolutely nothing. I don't want him anymore. Montez Sueda, DJ Moore. Sir, DJ Moore's already been traded. So, understanding that, because I was one of the people who said, yeah, give up two firsts and DJ Moore to get Max Crosby, solve some cap issues, and also get a guy who makes your pass rush now... Elite with sweat on one side and him on the other. I do not see how the Raiders get two first-rounders after this. Oh, no. It was already questionable. That was the whole sticking point with the rest of the league was there were a lot of teams interested, but not for that price. In the words of the laws, yesterday's price is not today's price. I never thought it would go backwards, though.
Inflation is a hell of a drug. Well, in this case, it's the opposite. So yesterday's price on Max Crosby is not today's price.
