The Condor is BACK in Las Vegas! 🦅

In this explosive episode of the Silver and Black Radio Podcast, we dive deep into the whirlwind 24 hours that saw Maxx Crosby nearly traded to Baltimore before staying right where he belongs—in the Silver and Black. We break down his latest comments on his health, his surgery recovery, and why he’s more motivated than ever to "Run that sh*t" in 2026.

Segment 1: The Return of Maxx Crosby
Maxx has been vocal about his commitment to Raider Nation. We analyze his recent social media firestorm, his recovery status, and what having him back means for the locker room culture.

Segment 2: The Expert Take & The QB Conundrum
We react to the latest insights from NFL heavyweights Dan Orlovsky, McCants, Chase Daniel, Mel Kiper, and Tim Hasselbeck.

The Debate: Is Fernando Mendoza the undisputed QB1, or is Ty Simpson the real prize?

We tackle the hard questions: Regular season vs. Postseason importance—which matters more for a rebuilding franchise?

If there’s no "generational" QB, why would teams trade up? We break down the leverage game.

Segment 3: Free Agency & Draft Dreaming
The Raiders have been BUSY. We rank the biggest Free Agency impact players—who changes the game on Day 1? Plus, if you’re the GM, who are you calling in the 2nd round? We look beyond Mendoza to the "must-have" prospects.

Bonus: We talk Draft Day superstitions—what’s your lucky gear?

Segment 4: Raider Nation Events & Road Trips
Mark your calendars! We’re hitting the road for the best parties in the country:

TNBC BBQ in Dallas: April 10-12

TBH Sacramento Draft Party: Featuring Bill Romanowski!
