Really? WTF!
NO WAY, the point of even trying to trade for vea is to pair him up with maxx giving us pressure up the middle with maxx pressure on the outside
I wouldn’t even consider it unless they offered Vita plus a worthwhile draft pick at minimum.
Yup...why make a trade that strengthens you at one defensive position while it weakens you in another?Goodtimes333 wrote: Sat Aug 08, 2026 9:33 am Maxx makes life hell trying to run any play. He's the best run defending edge player in the entire league. Plus the pass rush, the batted passes etc. He's one of the most respected players in the league in general. Id love Vita Vea as a Raider but I wouldn't trade Maxx to get him

Most of the time we would have made better decisions than the team did.
Yep, this trade proposal is stupid on a level rarely seen. But sometimes we get it done better than the team would have done. As much as I wanted to keep Maxx, the trade to Baltimore was about as good as it gets so I was on board. I think Baltimore should have been sanctioned for their handling of backing out of that deal.Opoponax50 wrote: Sat Aug 08, 2026 10:55 am Most of the time we would have made better decisions than the team did.
This is not one of those times.
That means he's worth a 1 and a 2 and 35 mil a year for a 4+ years.
benefits the team is right...job #1 ...this is why i was all for the bmore trade it gave the raiders the best they could get...this nutty deal of maxx for vita straight up leaves us at a deficit on teh trade, we r getting an older player and having to pay him while losing a excellent player in maxx whom is younger and more productive and getting nothingBe_Easy_25 wrote: Sat Aug 08, 2026 11:13 am Even if you hate Maxx, you still have an obligation to do a trade that best benefits the team.
this ...very lopsided in favor of tampon bay in this crazy tradeSkullCrusher wrote: Sat Aug 08, 2026 11:29 am That means he's worth a 1 and a 2 and 35 mil a year for a 4+ years.
I remember the days of getting Vea for a 4th and nice glance, plus 25 mil a year for 2-3 years.
This is the worst take since the we should trade for JJ McCarthy take
