I feel more let down that we missed the chance to trade for Kenny Clark if he was on the market.

A dominant DT would have been exactly what we needed, and if he was available, Beane should have pursued a trade. It seems he may have only been available in exchange for acquiring Parsons. Does anyone know if there were any rumors about his availability before the trade for Parsons?

I think Parsons made that a possibility. Otherwise I don’t think they were shopping him, nor wanted to.

I agree that we could use a dominant DT, but I don’t think GB was looking to part with Clark just to trade him. I think they knew the Cowboys would want a D line player back in addition to picks and he had value. Similar to if the Bills made a move to ship off Oliver with picks. Not looking to active ship off that player, just trying to put an attractive package together.

Sounds like there are questions/ evidence he might already be in decline fwiw

[Snappysnackcakes]

Jeez…do some of us not know what trades accomplish?

Not sure it makes sense to trade for yet another d lineman when you’ve already drafted (heavy!) and sign free agents. When would it stop?!
