Yes, there's no question that the Bills are a better run organization than are the Cowboys.

 

 

You've made some strong posts in this topic but I wish you wouldn't play the Stevie Wonder card.

 

Imagine if he was a Bills fan and read this forum and he read your post... how that would make him feel???

 

BTW.... This was very funny....😉  I was going to go Helen Keller...but then your joke wouldn't have worked.

Everybody should want Parsons, some people like things to remain the same, not rock the boat. 
 

 It’s just how some people are wired, my wife is this way and it drives me crazy, just wants to keep on keeping because things aren’t bad, never imagining what could be.

 

 Whatever it takes is where I’m at.

Smart enough to not spell defense correctly 😂

 

Look, it’s a stupid trade off. We could get an all pro year out of him. But his perceived value is very down. Find another path, I’m all for it. Including multiple first rounders. 

Ok remember this when the defense is the cause for another playoff exit like has been every year.

My wife is the same way and it drives me crazy. Back in May, we had the opportunity to cash out our retirement accounts and place a bet in the Kentucky Derby. I just knew that Sovereignty was gonna win. Call it a strong conviction.

 

We would have won and the bet would have paid 7:1.

 

Things are kind of back to normal now but I was pretty sore for a few months.

 

She just doesn't get it.

Well you just have to make sure she never hears the end of it until the next Kentucky Derby!

You keep arguing things that nobody is disagreeing with. I said bring him in if possible. Use your firsts, do whatever it takes. This was about Milano, you keep talking about other things. If you want to disagree then make a post about how Milano can be both worthless to us, and somehow valuable to them. How he can spare us cap hit and quality, yet move the needle in a trade. He’s barely played the last two years. No value, and what value he has would be best served with Buffalo his last year.

lol…. Yes there’s an obvious upside to the play it safe mindset, luckily as Bills fans we wouldn’t be mortgaging our retirement to take a swing.

 

Now, if some fans treat draft capital as important as they do being able to eat while elderly… I’d say they need to relax lol

I thought this after Jerry's last public comments about Micah "getting hit by a bus" and what not.

 

If I were Parsons I would move on. Play this season and then hit free agency. Could get way more on the open market and not get dicked around by old Salty McMuffin.

 

I guess they could tag him or threaten to tag him, but I'd cross that bridge when we came to it.

The only ting that matters to me. Will Parsons become a Bill

 He won't

Now to watch  the Jerry show ? It's fun for awhile

Ride em Cowboy lol

Posted on X, via PFT, Micah Parsons breaks his silence:

 

"In a statement posted on Twitter, linebacker Micah Parsons tells the team — and the rest of the world — that he wants out.

 

“Yes I wanted to be here,” Parson said. “I did everything I could to show that I wanted to be a Cowboy and wear the star on my helmet. I wanted to play in front of the best fans in sports and make this Americas [sic] team once again. The team my pops and I grew up cheering for way up in Harrisburg, PA.

 

“Unfortunately I no longer want to be here. I no longer want to be held to close door negotiations without my agent present. I no longer want shots taken at me for getting injured while laying it on the line for the organization[,] our fans and my teammates. I no longer want narratives created and spread to the media about me. I had purposely stayed quiet in hopes of getting something done. But since there is confusion out there let me clear some things up.

“I had my agent reach out to the Cowboys last off season after my 3rd year in hopes of getting a deal done early. Unfortunately the team did not want to start any negotiations at that point. I was ok with that[,] didn’t complain and focused on the 2024 season. After the season I told my agent once again to let the team know we were open to negotiate when they met at the combine. My agent informed me I should wait for other deals to get done because the price would only go up but I didn’t care and wanted to secure myself as a Cowboy long term. This was before anv of the other pass rushers deals got done this off season. I knew I would be leaving money on the table but again I was ok with that.

 

“Again radio silence as far as my extension. In March I met with Mr. Jones to talk about leadership. Somehow the conversation turned into him talking contract with me. Yes I engaged in a back and forth in regards to what I wanted from my contract, but at no point did I believe this was supposed to be a formal negotiation and I informed Mr. Jones afterward my agent would reach out thinking this would get things done. But when my agent reached out and spoke to Adam he was told the deal was pretty much already done. My agent of course told him that wasn’t the case and also reached out to Stephen Jones. Again the team decided to go silent. At that point we decided we would allow the team to reach out to us whenever they decided they wanted to talk. Yet still not a call[,] email or text to my agent about starting a negotiation. Up to today the team has not had a single conversation with my agent about a contract. Not one demand has been made by my agent about money[,] years or anything else.

 

“Still I stayed quiet but again after repeated shots at myself and all the narratives I have made a tough decision I no longer want to play for the Dallas Cowboys. My trade request has been submitted to Stephen Jones personally.”

After reading this

 he sounds high character, albeit a snap shot !

A Bills type of character trait.

 Beane , just do your due diligence on this one.

 Maybe, just maybe : )  next year we bring on the highest paid DE.

Would actually make a HUGE difference to the Defense. Quick name the last Bills DE with a double digit sack season. Let along one with 4 seasons back to back to back to back with double digit sacks. 
 

cook at the end of the day is a RB. 
 

 

do the Bills have Points Scoring Problem in playoffs or Defense problems during playoffs?? 

Bills run a 4 man rotation. No one player will stand out in the sack column if everyone does their job

Gregg is our best D end and still rising. Always questioned the thinking.

Parson would be Bosa's replacement

 Beane already decided on his "other " FA DE

Dallas has film and knows the injury history of Milano too.  Because we're likely to pick at the end of the first round if this fantasy ever came true the trade would pry look something like this..... 

 

Two first round picks (2026,2027), a 2nd rounder in 2026, and Greg Rousseau.

 

Would you do it knowing we have to make him the highest payed non QB in the NFL?

I think this is the only trade we can realistically think Jerry would agree to. He'll want Rousseau over guys like AJ or Milano. And we'll have to pay (2) 1st's and at least a 2nd....maybe even throw in a 4th.

I actually agree with you that the Bills need to make a move like this. The problem is that they already chose a different path this season and can no longer realistically make something like this work. But talk to me next offseason when they can make it work. I’ll be down for it.

 

I don’t think Parsons gets moved before then anyway. I expect Jerry to make him play this season and then tag him next so he can trade him. That way he’ll eke out all the “cheap” seasons from him and have a chance to replace him in FA or the draft. 

They technically could do it if they restructure Dawkins and Knox.  Include Epenesa in the trade (or trade him to another team) and cut both D. Jones and Trubisky.  The hardest part would be getting a team to trade for Epenesa.  Once Parsons gets here they can give him a new contract that lessons the cap hit he'd bring this year giving them a little room to work with cap wise.  There's pry a >99.9% chance this doesn't happen though.

If you can pull this off , I will kiss you. Or your wife.
Somebody is getting a big hug thats for sure

 

Jerry got some mean spirit in him

He will not let Micah go. Thats my lil prediction

He will keep him locked up another two years , including this one

[DabillsDaBillsDaBills]

Our DEF already has too many guys that are great at stat-padding against bad teams in the regular season and disappear against good ones in the playoffs. That's exactly the type of player Parsons is. Why would we give up significant assets and blow a hole in our salary cap to go after a guy like that?

All this over the top discussion by Bills fans about what they would trade to get Micah Parsons?  Doesnt anyone recall how the bills a few years ago totally game planned him out of the Bills game, we had a master stroke in rendering him worthless.

Having a player that teams specifically game plan for is a good thing.

The originator is Polymarket and they are legit, and a fun one to follow as they are also funny AF in their recaps of football and basketball games.  But they only post legit stuff from what I have seen and I went and confirmed they put this out, and did.  Here is the link and I recommend all their accounts for a follow

Again more cap things. 
 

d Jones - do we not have multiple young players here saves 10M 

 

Milano - add to trade saves 12M

 

heck Samuels 

 

there are players that you can Move on from to get the space to account for the 5th year option. 

 

OR like all trades you work the Extension out first and now you are fitting single digits this year not 25M. 

Ahhh ok. So the year before? Secondary issues as well?  What about year before that?  Or the year before that? 

Why is anyone talking about Milano and DaQuan Jones as if they have any trade value whatsoever?  Milano is a 31 year old coverage LB who has missed most of the past 2 seasons, and DaQuan will be 34 years old this season and hasn’t been productive he past 2 seasons.
