You know Maxx Crosby is good. He's been good since basically the moment he entered the league, but you know that. You know that he's not just a good pass-rusher; Crosby's the type of cornerstone player that teams can build around. He sets the tone both on and off the field, and there's a probably some hypothetical argument out there to be made out there that he brings as much value to the Raiders as most quarterbacks bring to their team.
Reader, good news: it's not hypothetical anymore. Thanks to our good friends at Bleacher Report, we know have actual written words making that exact argument.
