Micah's comments about his agent

[Hadenough]

But but but what about the Discount?! What about I don’t have to be the highest paid?!

I like Micah but if I were Jerry I would trade his azz, I don’t like being called out. Ty…

Because unlike Dak he is one of the top players at his position. No discount because Jerry didn't listen and bring in some big name FAs.

 

[rags747]

Stop asking for the dude to take a discount. Would you take less than you could get paid at your job?

Never asked him to, I’m quoting directly from the horses mouth. Thx for playing…

It’s his career and his contract. How is that not something he can comment on? Especially when people like Clarence Hill are putting out bait for fans to get mad about.

He can talk about whatever he wants. And put everything in public also.

And if clarence needs to make a living on a-social media then i feel sad for him. But he can also do whatever he wants. Its him who has to look up in the mirror before he goes to bed. And if he feels good in this moment then there is nobody who can help him anymore.

I for myself have some values in life that differ from that. One is that not everything should be justified by money. There are some values inside a society that should not be kicker out just because something else is selling better.

To be more fair about Micah. I dont think this guy has this kind of deeper thoughts. To be honest he has an below average IQ. Not to say he seems to be flat put stupid. He can be glad that there is something like professional football where he can earn some momey. Still its funny to watch that people who earn a lot of money think they actually have something meaningful to say others are interessted in.

I agree with your thought, but at the same time they deserve one another.

Jerry seems like an awful negotiator.

see the mingo trade/coop trade/Lance trade

Another stupid chapter in the book entitled, “How to Make a Fool of Yourself as an NFL GM” by Jerral Wayne Jones.

However long it takes to get the contract deal done with Parsons….it will get done for market value, not a penny less. Maybe even more. And Micah’s agent will win in the end as ALL agents do vs. the Jones boys. Just look at Dak’s agent Todd France who has twice taken Jerry to the cleaners.

Talking publicly during an important contract negotiation with your most talented player is arrogantly stupid.

How about let’s not have the second worst defense in the nfl before we pay defensive MVP money for Micah in the media.

the top but he's not the best

 

[Nova]

This feels like staged, pre-boxing match banter

Next there going have a weigh-in where somebody gets shoved

 

[Praxit]

...just be careful young man, that you dont end up with Ringless career of nice stats. ...lol..

Agents have other agenda's.

 

[Hadenough]

But that's just it. He's getting paid because he's one of the top. That's how football should work. It shouldn't be next man up.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Don't agents take 33% of a players contract? If so, wouldn't it be better for a player like Micah to negotiate a new contract without an agent so that Micah keeps more money for himself?

I agree, but Micah would not have a clue about all the ramifications in a contract. lmao. He to busy playing games.

123 - 11 =...he wont know.

No the NFL caps it at 3% so it entices you to have one. Agents can make a higher percentage for endorsements though

 

[Surfguy]

Time to say goodbye to Micah. Discount my arse.

Que sera sera...whatever will be will be.

 

[diamonddelts]

All this back and forth is about nothing. I never understood people who get excited about running it back with the same guys that you've been losing games with. If the Cowboys can't win with Micah on the cheap, how will they win with Micah being the highest paid defensive player ever?

This rancid team needs to be gutted to the core.

So you think the same people who put together this "rancid" team will do better if they gut the team and start over? Isn't that just running it back on another level.

Great players are hard to come by. Micah is a great player, and as you say, all the back and forth is about nothing. We should not conflate Jerry's mismanagement of player contracts with performance on the field. Jerry should have had this deal done a long time ago, quietly and efficiently, and there would be no hard feelings between the player and owner, or between the player and fans.

Can't play the run for crap.
Half of a legitimate DE

if we are talking about stats not rings this hold true with both players...you may like one better than the other but they both have great position stats and not big wins...but that holds true for every "Good/Great" player we have had for 30 years...
