BREAKING NEWS ***** Cowboys are trading LB Micah Packers to Green Bay Packers *****

[KingCorcoran]

You always want more, but I'm not completely dissatisfied with the trade either. There's no way to know what the future holds, but this trade probably isn't going to be the disaster that some fans of Parsons think it will be.

I’m just glad his back ailment has cured.

 

[blueblood70]

I just hope we can build a Super Bowl team because of this in the next few years, ideally before the Packers tie us and/or the Chiefs pass us. Because otherwise, this was a possible disaster.

Here's the last one i'm trying to be the voice of reason here a disaster with Micah Parsons the last four years what did the Cowboys do The playoff losses the lack of playoff success even the lack of success against the better teams we saw in the regular season how did he make this team truly that much better? I'm not saying he wasn't great and he didn't make the team better but you're saying it's a disaster or a possible disaster hell isn't that what they're describing the Green Bay loss but Timmy just went to in that the playoff game he was part of was he out I mean did I miss something?

Not blaming those losses on him but I'm saying we'd lost all those games the big games in the regular season the big games in the playoffs with him how can it be a disaster without him especially right now we have a new defensive coordinator that has a lot of toys to work with I know they're not Parsons level but come on dude there's some good pass rushers on this team now could they put it together I don't know but when you say the word it could be disastrous i've got to check you right there...

This is why if last year Jerry would have not signed Lamb and then rejected Prescott and decided to go ahead and rebuild and traded everyone I was OK with it this hurts more because gonna be on board with bringing everybody in for one last try and now it end up like this yes it's bad short term it's gonna hurt with our emotions and what not but I don't think it's gonna affect us as much on the field as people think..

Not saying we're not gonna miss his production we probably will but other teams have had to do this And they find ways to cover it up...

That’s your opinion.

Your upset about the trade.

You’ll feel better tomorrow morning.

No I won’t. The trade wasn’t good and the cowboys defense is going to stink this year.

Who trades a dpoy candidate, all pro, top 2 pass rusher in the league, not yet in his prime?

Serious question. Aside Kalil Mack (Raiders another gong show team)

 

[Starforever]

He sucks against the run, takes himself out of games all the time and is no where to be found in big games.

He’s no Charles Haley. Or Tony Tolbert for that matter.

The euphoria among Cowboys fans is nauseating.

Nobody does this. Nobody.

Would it stink with Micah?

 

[KingCorcoran]

I wonder how Micah's back is feeling now.

It’s a miracle!

 

[CowboyinMD]

I don't give a flying ef where you're coming from the Jets got more for Jamal Adams let that sink in. 30 years says HOF'ers can't get them to the SB.

All I know is there was worse reactions to the Herschel Walker trade. I was 19 when that happened, so yes I've been around for a while.

And yet I still watched. And I'll watch now. Jerry Jones isn't going to be around forever. But for those of you that are too fragile, you can jump off the bandwagon right now.

That is if you were ever on at the begin with. My fandom began in 1978. I've seen it all fellas.

 

[BrassCowboy]

I was all against Micah being traded anywhere until he looked to get a second opinion on his back pain after the Dallas doctors cleared him as ready to play.

Why would you go for a 2nd opinion unless you were looking for a way to miss games without getting fined/losing paychecks? it was just going to be more games from him and/or his agent.... and believe me I am not a fan of Jerry but this was just bad all the way around. Jerry in this case did what was best for this team and I am totally ok with it now.

We have an abundance of DEs and now picks to help us build in the future

 

[HungryLion]

Would it stink with Micah?

It would be much better with Micah.

Especially against the pass.

Y’all want to focus on run defense (which hasn’t been Micah’s fault). Watch the pass defense go into the toilet. Be prepared it’s happening.

 

[pitt33]

And yet every single measurable shows that when he is on the field the Cowboys are a top 5 defense and when he is off they are a bottom 5 defense.

Let’s not try to force flaws. There is a reason in 4 years he is a 4x Pro Bowler, 3x all Pro, 2x first team all pro, 3x in top 3 for DPoY, and the only year he wasn’t in top 3 was when he missed games and the defense became horrid.

He’s strictly a pass rusher. Albeit a good one in the first two months of the season.

Charles Haley and Deon Sanders came to the Cowboys you trying to tell me they weren't in their prime hell one of them was named prime...

Tyreek Hill let's just keep it at players he was in his prime and and they were a better team than us They were on a Super Bowl run anyway and yet they said you know what we don't need our best wide receiver we'll just do it team wise just like we can do with what's left here so plenty of names to try to have a team pass rush versus one player..

I'm not saying it's a big loss but don't act like big names haven't been traded around the NFL or sports for that matter.. You know he's not yet in his prime how do you know that he hasn't peaked how do you know he doesn't have a real back injury How do you know he's going to last long in us in in this league to become one of the best of all time?

Who don't it's a rhetorical question we don't know three years from now is the way we'll judge what the Cowboys do with the draft picks how they do without him and what he does with the Packers and what the Packers do overall we need 3 years to really assess this..

 

[NFCBeasts]

Amazing those of you who think he was not worth 47 million …. can’t wait for you all to cry “Dak doesn’t have a defense “ …. i guess not when you let your pride and ego get in the way of keeping your best defensive player … but yeah “ good riddance “

 

[KingCorcoran]

Above is incorrect.

‘25 he only counts 2.3 mil against the cap
‘26 jumps to 21.5
‘27 20 mil

No guaranteed $ after this year so he’s probably getting cut.

Great trade.

 

[Section446]

People will defend this.

 

[morat1959]

This better be all for packaging 3 first round picks to nab Arch Manning in the draft.

I just can’t with Jerry Jones anymore

We may not need to package any of the picks. Come on 0-17!

Explain much better in wins.
