Report: Micah Parsons requests a trade

[SCBills]

No one has reported on the Bills actually offering, so that’s out of left field, but the Packers have been reported by multiple outlets to have offered and been rejected.

Offers are nice. I think Jerry jones is going to not back down one iota. In fact I think he feels so wronged. That he’s going to make him play out his rookie deal. And franchise tag him over and over again. He’s pissed. He’s not gonna let him go. He’s going to show Micah you don’t go back on a gentleman’s handshake w the supreme emperor of the nfl

I would trade Groot/Oliver, a 1st for parsons and a 3rd/wr.

you're High that's way too much to give up. Groot will have a great year this year mark it down. Oliver but be enticing to the Cowgirls . 

I wouldn't do this trade if it was Parsons for a 5th the dude is an absolute egomaniac and is not a process guy at all. Didn't Diggs teach us anything?

This guy is on track to go down as one of the top 5 pass rusher of all time on his current trajectory, Diggs was nice but not close to Parsons level.

 

 I’d definitely pay a big price to acquire such a player, but not so much that it negates the impact Parsons provides.

 

 There’s definitely a line in the sand.

Beane's failing point as a GM is his unwillingness to go all-in for top talent. I imagine he feels burned by Von tearing his ACL but it was the right idea and he shouldn't be scared of swinging for the fences. If you can get Parsons in his prime you do it, even if it's expensive.

 

If Beane had pulled the trigger and traded for Von mid-season instead of the Rams 13 seconds would never have happened and we would have won it all that year.

I've seen this twice, and I just dont believe its true. Speculation obviously... but he did the Bussin with the Boys Podcast last week, and I remember him talking aboiut it and saying how well that DL looked and Von was his old self until that Detroit field.  I think these guys get seasoned to protect themselves against bad beats.  It was the right move, but it didnt work out.

 

I'd do that deal over and over again. 85 out of 100 times it works..... and those are odds you should ALWAYS be willing to roll the dice on.

 

A BAD GM would see that situation and be scared to pull the trigger again

Is Parsons in his Prime? Also Does Parsons put us over the top to get to a SB? you answer yes to these questions and I will buy in. But we have a better chance of Seeing God Than Parsons coming here so there's that.

Parsons is an odd case to me.  His sack numbers are impressive, and he is considered a star, but I am never really overwhelmed by watching him in games, especially playoff games.   In recent years, I didn't see him really making an impact on playoff games.  A guy like him, who is considered a superstar, should be impacting games more, IMO.   

[Mat68]

With the history between Dallas and Greenbay 0 chance Parson ends up in Greenbay.  Buffalo would be an ideal partner for Jerry imo.  Small market(loss of sponsoship money in Jerrys mind). Not a common opponent.

Prime?? Maybeeee, but he could % have more ceiling than he has now.... not to mention he's the type i could see bringing extra gas to the table after feeling disrespected.  Thats a guy I want on my team.  Oliver + premium pick is my starting offer.... id throw in a Knox or Kincaid if interested.  And yes, Im also on the record for Mclaurin too.... i want another big piece if possible.  Id MUCH rather Parsons, but would give a healthy offer for Scary Terry too

Yeah I wouldn't doubt it if he kicked it into an even higher gear playing for a team with a genuine chance at winning it all. Preferably us, of course.

Would make one hell of a Hard Knocks story

He impacts the game a ton. If you don't pay enough attention to him, like other elite pass rusher, he'll wreck your gameplan. Ask Philly how they feel about him. They would be ecstatic to get him out of the division.

I think JJ ends up paying him like he has the rest of his star players. He always drags out negotiations and ends up paying more than he could have if he had just paid them sooner. It’s like an annual Dallas tradition at this point. lol 

 

After hearing Jones talk at his Netflix premiere, everything he does truly is just all about creating storylines to keep the cowboys name in the news cycle.

 

(listen to the whole 59 second clip. It’s a more detailed answer than the Twitter quote)

 

his contract negotiating strategy never made sense to me until this interview. I could never think of a logical reason why he always seemed to wait for other star players to set the market even higher. But now I think he views the headlines a contract dispute creates as being worth more than saving cap space (by getting a deal done sooner) to use on depth players.

a title would make him so much more money but he doesn’t realize that I guess

He is worth like 15 billion dollars or something.  He doesn’t need money.  He needs his ego fed 24x7 at all costs.  Parsons is the same way.  
 

when they sign his contract this weekend they will both be laughing about all this.

Beane used to invest significantly in WR but basically stopped since the Diggs trade.

 

I think there’s an argument he felt burned by having a star #1 WR.

He did that three times already and someone else got all the credit.

 

and that is why he makes all the final decisions because he wants to be credited.  
 

he has three rings and a gold jacket and still needs his ego fed daily.
