That's how I'm looking at it and I also know that things like this will get done either two weeks or the week before game one and the only time this becomes real serious,
if he's not signed a day before the game, and we know he's not playing game one, then this becomes serious, and I'm not sure about being expendable..
I don't think he's expendable, but yes you're right we should look at that as an injury, that he comes off the PUP list right, before game one ,gets himself ready to play, and then we could just put this nonsense to bed..
he probably will get a new deal or he knows he doesn't want to lose 1.4 million dollars per game and knowing that he could be franchise tagged and we're back in this spot next offseason... how many of these games is he willing to eat the loss of money and be on the sidelines in the background? Three seasons in a row ?? how many how many is he going to do to make him serious, I'm tired of hearing how serious they are...
Both sides have equally botched this, but again if we're sitting here a week before the game and still nothing's being even close to being done, I'll start to worry a little bit until then this is just posturing and nonsense.
Also write that the young players are getting plenty of extra time on the field and that's a good thing but again I have to disagree about expendable he's the best pass rusher we have but they did enough in this offseason to bring in enough at that position it might be all they be covered for a game or two but against the Eagles, i'm not comfortable with going with all these unknowns...
Fowler is the only one we know we can count on , Sam Williams seems eager, but can you really trust him, and the rookie again we haven't seen him against game plans in real competition, then they have Kneeland but he's more of a run stopper.. And I know they have other guys like Turner, and they brought in Houston etc ..
Sure, they can create some pass rush but I really don't like the scenario going into the Eagles game without Parsons.
I don't care about camp, but I do care about him missing the Eagles game.
