I feel like I'll be in the minority, but Dallas won this trade. I feel like we got to a point in this process where Parsons became slightly overrated. 47 million is insane.

If GB at least reaches the NFCCG the next two seasons (not a stretch with the addition of Parsons), those two first rounders will be severely degraded and combined would be worth about one top 10 pick.  I don’t see much chance that either of those picks is top half of round 1.

It would nice to know if the Bills made an offer and what that was

 

I’m guessing the $ Beane wouldn’t go over 35-40 M range

So Buffalo airport is a layover for Dallas-> GB flight?

All the trades go through buffalo

Probably a good deal for both teams. If I was Dallas I probably would have asked for a mid round pick as well

This is crazy good for cowboys

Kenny clark is way underrated

Kenny Clark is good. No debating that.

Two (likely very late) 1sts is awful value for a top three edge rusher who has four straight 12+ sack seasons, four straight Pro Bowl appearances, is a two time All-Pro, and is just 26 years old.

Terrible return for a player of that caliber.

Parsons is of course an elite pass rushers.  hes far from a complete player worth what GB is now going to be paying him, let alone giving up two 1sts.  i would have loved him as a pass rush specialist for the Bills,  but not at the price GB just paid.

You overhear Beane:

 

“$47 mill per!”  Tells camera to cut*.

I dunno, having a non QB take up 20% of your teams cap space is also something to consider.

[Warriorspikes51]

Parsons strikes me as the type of player that is high risk.  A change of scenery and new contract could see him hit 20 sacks per season or pull a Haynesworth

No doubt it would have been fun, but 47 per is wild

Something to consider? Sure. 

Give me Josh Allen, someone to keep Josh Allen upright, and Micah Parsons for the next five years and I'll figure out the rest.

I wouldn't know

 

I do know Pack are going to have a much different defense now and I'd put good money in 3yrd this looks like an absolute steal for Dallas

yeah, that might be a stretch! 
 

I do wonder if I am biased based on what the bills did to the cowboys in 2023. Almost 300 rushing yards, basically right at parsons.

In any event, I don't think the cap would allow the bills to sign him.  Trying to look at their cap situation for the next few years and all the normal sites must be getting crushed right now because nothing is loading.

That's been the case with Micah - he is a generational pass rusher, but if you run the ball right at him or stunt, he becomes easier to address.  Green bay was already a good defense last year, do they really think he can elevate them that much higher?

Yeah, let them run the ball with 80 yds in front of them in 13 seconds😎

Now they can use all those first round picks on EDGEs in the draft. And who knows. Maybe they will get someone half as good as Micah Parsons

and then wait for them to hold out and have to pay them an extra 5-8m per year because you wanted to play chicken with NFL agents.
