A top-10 draft pick, a new owner, and a new head coach—the Las Vegas Raiders are ready to turn the page on a rough couple of years. Their first major move to spark that change came with the acquisition of Geno Smith from the Seattle Seahawks.

Maxx Crosby, the star defensive end of the Raiders, not only dominates the field but is also crushing it with his salary. With a multimillion-dollar contract, his future has never been as bright as it is now.

A three-year, $106.5 million contract extension with Las Vegas pushes the veteran pass-rusher just ahead of Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson.
