FOX Sports mid-season DROY: Micah Parsons

[Risen Star]

 

[Ranching]

Duh.....

 

[ClappingCarrot]

Kinda unanimous at this point. I need my guy to force some fumbles.

 

[Alexander]

Hands down, no question.

But they are about to burden that kid even more. He seems to love it, though.

I just hope he does not break down physically.

 

[Zordon]

Alpha.

 

[Techsass]

But he's not a CB.

 

[Tussinman]

Defensive ROTY should be a lock.

Overall ROTY will either be him or Ja"marr Chase whose having a freak season (over 800 yards and 7 touchdowns with 8 games still remaining, currently leads the entire AFC conference in both yards and touchdowns)

 

[Alexander]

Alpha.

That he is. As close to true alpha on defense that we have seen in a very very long time.

If all he cares about is football and his puppy, I am all good with him.

You're not fooling anybody.

But he's not a CB.

Some here wanted a tackle over him. I’ll take the cornerstone of our defense for the next decade over a tackle any day and twice on Sunday.

 

[BAT]

FREAK

 

[Cowpolk]

But he's not a CB.

And I'm glad he is not

a tackle with equal talent of Parsons is hands down easily the choice

 

[tyke1doe]

He should get Rookie of the Year PERIODT!

 

[Praxit]

..bet he gets 3 sacks tomorrow.. ..

 

[gimmesix]

..bet he gets 3 sacks tomorrow.. ..

We could certainly use it.

 

[5Stars]

Raised by wolves...hunting...

It goes both ways. You could easily say "I'd take Tyron Smiths blindside replacement for the next decade over him" and it doesn't sound any better or any worst.

Especially since half this forum has a meltdown when Tyron can't play since he's a cornerstone player (Tyrons replacement would easily be just as much of a cornerstone of a player as Parsons)

Yeah Raswhawn Slater who was picked #13 is playing LT at a fringe pro bowl level right now. Good left tackles command 22+ million a year salaries so lets be real, we wouldn't be complaining about Slater on our roster.

Claiming "uhhh you guys wanted some random tackle over Parsons" is completely downplaying the value of the position and the talent level

I didn’t say that. But how many first round picks do we have to invest on the OL? Parsons was the right pick for both the defense and the change in culture.
