There are already rumors that star quarterback Joe Burrow could be traded by the Cincinnati Bengals this offseason and the Las Vegas Raiders have already been connected as a possible suitor.<\/p>\n

We will talk much more of this topic in the offseason if the trade talks persist.<\/p>\n

But we wanted to get ahead of the subject by addressing if the Raiders fans were on board on what would likely be a huge, huge price in terms of trade compensation for the Silver and Black to land Burrow.<\/p>\n

It has already been speculated elsewhere it could cost up to three first-round picks and two second-round picks.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve talked to some folks who think it could cost the Raiders their top pick in 2026 (even it\u2019s the No. 1 overall pick), super pass-rusher Maxx Crosby and maybe even 2025 top pick, running back Ashton Jeanty. This is all speculation, but the point is, the Raiders would have to give up a ton in this trade and Crosby may have to be part of it.<\/p>\n

So, we asked our readers, if hey would be on board for Burrow trade if it meant sending their 2026 first-round pick and, at least, Crosby for Burrow. The answer was a resounding \u2018no\u201d as more than 80 percent of the voters were against the idea.<\/p>\n

I get it. The idea of trading Crosby is scary. Plus, Burrow, 29, has a history of injuries and a high cost in terms of contract. Also, without Crosby and a top pick, this rebuilding process would not be helped much even with the presence of Burrow.<\/p>\n

So, we\u2019re on the same page. Again, we will revisit in the offseason is the talks persist.<\/p>\n

Here are some of your responses:<\/p>\n

I am with everybody else. To expensive, to injury prone and will be unhappy about coming here.<\/p>\n

Burrow injury history huge factor in my NO vote. Build this team with draft and quality\/smart transactions by FA, trades and signings. Burrow is a top 5 QB when healthy and NFL QB is probably most important single position in sports but it doesn\u2019t win championships and consistently competitive alone. Chessy I know, but players, coaches, front office and supported fanbase entirely together find success in the NFL.<\/p>\n

Not against it, but we\u2019d be crazy to give that many picks and pay his contract (55 million a year) for a guy that likely won\u2019t make it through the season. He\u2019s been injured every year since 2020, except for 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There are already rumors that star quarterback Joe Burrow could be traded by the Cincinnati Bengals this offseason…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":623061,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2065],"tags":[1303,256,7,1577,1744,393,2455,2454,6563,6,525,30650,36920],"class_list":{"0":"post-623060","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-las-vegas-raiders","8":"tag-ashton-jeanty","9":"tag-cincinnati-bengals","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-joe-burrow","12":"tag-las-vegas","13":"tag-las-vegas-raiders","14":"tag-lasvegas","15":"tag-lasvegasraiders","16":"tag-maxx-crosby","17":"tag-nfl","18":"tag-raiders","19":"tag-terms-of-trade","20":"tag-top-pick"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115770599922650835","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623060","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=623060"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623060\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/623061"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=623060"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=623060"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=623060"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
