ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler wrote about a blockbuster trade that ultimately was nixed between the Baltimore Ravens and the Las Vegas Raiders. It’s a situation where Crosby himself said, “No one will ever admit what the real truth is.” During the process, Fowler shared that the Raiders’ requirement was two first-round picks. The deal was contingent […]
It’s been a wild ride for Las Vegas Raiders fans as they followed the crazy Maxx Crosby saga. In a matter of days, the superstar pass-rusher was headed to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for two first-round draft picks to the trade being called off because Crosby failed a physical. We asked our community members […]
With the Baltimore Ravens regaining their first round pick in the aftermath of the Maxx Crosby debacle, there have been a few players frequently linked to them for the 14th pick in April’s draft. Guard Olaivavega Ioane from Penn State has been a popular name given the Ravens’ recent issues along the offensive line. Additionally, […]

In last week’s Ravens Reacts survey, we asked Baltimore Beatdown readers about the Ravens’ biggest remaining need and most impactful departure in free agency. Your answers had a theme: offensive line, specifically the center position. 36% of respondents answered that the Ravens needed to sign a veteran center, with another 24% looking to add another […]
The Browns hired former Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken as their head coach this offseason, and he in turn brought several of his staffers to Cleveland. He was not, however, as aggressive in pursuing his former players in free agency, especially compared to John Harbaugh’s Giants. They already snapped up four ex-Ravens, though that has […]
Rutgers Football is set to hire Gino Gradkowski, a former NFL center who won Super Bowl XLVII with the Baltimore Ravens, to its coaching staff as an assistant offensive line coach. The 37-year-old played a total of six seasons in the NFL, where he played in 60 games, starting 20, before he moved on to […]
This was not unexpected. Bummer for you, Baltimore Ravens, but you’re on the poo-poo list of many Las Vegas Raiders’ fans. That’s what you get. The Ravens, of course, backed out of the agreed upon Maxx Crosby trade for two first-round picks the night before it was supposed to become official. They reportedly were uncomfortable […]
Getting traded from Tennessee to Baltimore midway through the 2025 regular season meant that Dre’Mont Jones met his future team on two occasions. He played against the New England Patriots as a Titan in October, and then again as a Raven two months later. In those two games, he was a problem. Jones registered five […]

The Las Vegas Raiders signed Baltimore Ravens center Tyler Linderbaum last week. Let’s get to know him: Historic contract: Future NFL interior offensive lineman will bow to Linderbaum. He signed a three-year, $81 million deal that has little to no fat in it. He is being paid $27 million a year. Linderbaum set the center […]
The Baltimore Ravens have not been shy about drafting prospects from Penn State in recent years. Since 2019, Baltimore has selected four players from the Nittany Lions, more than any other school during that timeframe (Trace McSorley, Odafe Oweh, Jordan Stout, Adisa Isaac). That trend could continue in 2026, as reports emerged late last season […]
The Las Vegas Raiders went into the offseason needing, at least, one new starting offensive line. They attacked it in a big way on the first day of the legal-tampering period by signing Baltimore Ravens standout center Tyler Linderbaum. But they still have some needs to address on the line, potentially even after signing potential […]
DeAndre Hopkins was recently lamenting his lack of redzone targets with the Baltimore Ravens last season, and it made me wonder if the Los Angeles Rams could use someone like that on their team for their own redzone success. Davantae Adams led the NFL in receiving scores last year, and for now he’s still with […]
Former Colts center Danny Pinter will be playing professional football elsewhere in 2026. On Tuesday, Pinter agreed to a deal with the Baltimore Ravens, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. According to The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec, Pinter agreed to a one-year, $2.25 million deal that’s worth up to $2.75 million. Pinter was drafted by the Colts […]
The Ravens will need a new starting center for the 2026 season after Tyler Linderbaum’s departure in free agency. Corey Bullock, who served as the backup last year, is a younger in-house option, but the team badly needed to add a more experienced veteran. That has now come in the former of former Colts center […]

It is practically an annual tradition for the Ravens to lose a number of key players in free agency, but this year has felt particularly brutal. Not only have key players like Tyler Linderbaum and Isaiah Likely left Baltimore, but several fan-favorites have as well. Let’s catch up on last week’s departures! Keaton Mitchell to […]
This past week here at Buffalo Rumblings, we were curious to learn more about how Buffalo Bills fans felt following the failed trade for defensive end Maxx Crosby between the Las Vegas Raiders and Baltimore Ravens.

The Ravens re-signed four exclusive rights free agents last week, including offensive lineman Corey Bullock and defensive tackle C.J. Okoye, who both spent the 2025 season on the active roster. The NFL uses two different season designations that impact players’ contract status: accrued and credited. An accrued season is one in which a player is […]
One of the great things about loving a sports team is that it usually comes with a healthy dose of hate for their rivals. And the hate can spread. Because of their rich history, fans of the Las Vegas Raiders have a lot of NFL hate to spread around and it goes beyond their AFC […]
The Las Vegas Raiders fan base has been dealing with Maxx Crosby trade rumors since he was put on the injury reserve. The blowback from the decision to sit the star edge rusher led to the attempt to trade him to the Baltimore Ravens. When everyone thought it was over, the Ravens pulled the plug, […]
It’s been a busy start to the offseason for the Baltimore Ravens, who dominated national headlines during the first week of free agency. The Ravens made a blockbuster trade for Maxx Crosby only to back out of the deal within days in unprecedented fashion. Hours later, they compensated by signing Trey Hendrickson to a big […]
The Las Vegas Raiders clearly think center Tyler Linderbaum is a game-changing player who can help turn the franchise around, signing him to a record-breaking contract on the first day of NFL free agency. Linderbaum is leaving an organization, the Baltimore Ravens, that made the postseason in three out of his four career seasons and […]
