Could Dallas get 2 1st round draft picks for Parsons?

[Chasing6]

Is 1 player better than 5?

 

[JustChip]

Dude you look at some of the trades the last few years and saying never looks pretty dumb

What did the Bears give for Mack?

 

[CWR]

You only trade Parsons of you're re-loading. We aren't, instead we are re-signing Dak and bring MM back.

If I was clearing cap and wiping the books clean I'd be stock piling picks.

We know that's not how Jerry works.

 

[Nexx]

I am in favor a team with depth. I dont care for super stars. List me some superstar players from NE SB Runs.

Did they have a top five RB?
Did they have a top five WR?

Didnt know Micah played either one of those positions.

 

[HungryLion]

People overvalue draft picks.

You trade him for 2 firsts. What’s the chances of drafting a defender as good as him?

I’ll give you a hint. It’s small.

Dude the whole question is getting two firsts for him So not SURE why you are whining.

That was a typo. I meant to type 2 firsts. And you STILL don’t do it for 2 firsts.


Again. Overvaluing draft picks.

The only time you do it. Is for a QB.

 

[Whirlwin]

Why do people think you can trade a player you don’t want. For something better. You’re only going to get something different.

...Trade Micah for 2 first round picks and the money that was going to be spent on Parson's gets you 2 to 3 free agents.

Is Micah better than 2 first round picks and 3 $10M free agents? If so where was he in the GB game?

This is good thinking. Parsons might be the best player on the team, but no way is he better than 5 good players. (2 on cheap rookie deals)

What will happen instead is Dallas will sign him to an obscene contract, and we'll watch him either decline or get injured. Lots of future threads coming about how much dead money Dallas will have if they cut him.

 

[32BellyOption]

Doesn’t matter. Jerry is full steam ahead one more year as is. Nothing dramatic coming for next year.

Yep roll out the same and expect a different result. Brilliant!

 

[Chasing6]

Yes. The usual low brow Dallas fans with this sort of insane rhetoric. Trade a sure hof guy for two first round busts picked by the worst GM in the league.

Interesting.....how did they pick Micah?

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

 

[SinceDayOne]

All Parsons needs is motivation and maturity. He is a gem. We are talking about potentially one of the greatest ever. Way to early in his career to even be having this discussion. Be gone with all this trade garbage.

I think they're looking at it in terms of the whole package

So two first and an extra 30 million a year salary to play with.

The problem is do you trust this front office to effectively spend that $30 million saved per year and hitting on at least one of the two draft picks ?

If that full package netted a first round offensive tackle, first round LB and 30 million that upgraded both DT spots and LB depth then that's not bad. Of course everything is risked based but people are trying to argue what would the upside of the risk be

But they think Micah is guaranteed to make the HOF. He will continue to get 13+ sacks every year for the next 10 years. Then smart teams will double and triple team him and he will not show up in big games. Then we will put all the blame on the QB.

Or we can sit and wonder why, we did see it coming, when a LB(undersized DE) slows down, frequently injured and is missing games. Not that he shows up for big games anyway.

I don't really disagree but wasn't this sure HOF guy picked by the worst GM in the league. It would definitely be a risky proposition.

 

[ATXSRT]

Micah would fetch 2 maybe 3 1sts, and a haul of other 2nd and 3rd round picks. Do you all not remember what Khalil Mack's trade deal was? I'd argue Parsons is slightly better than Mack too because he can do everything on defense.

 

[Creeper]

How about a QB for starters

So you would give up the best player on the defense, one of the top 4 defenders in the entire league, and get a rookie QB who has maybe a 10% chance of being a franchise QB to replace him? And what happens to the defense?

People here seem to have short memories. Do you all recall how bad the defense was before Parsons was drafted? No sacks, no turnovers, no pressures. Trade Parsons and we would go back to that all over again.

Here's an idea, let's trade away all our best players and stockpile draft picks. Then we can assume all of our picks will be great players because the draft simulator gave me all As on my umpteenth simulation.

No let’s just stand pat and do nothing instead and pretend like after another 30 years we will improve. Sounds brilliant

 

[Bagman]

He's tradeable being he is on his rookie contract. Does this sound ludicrous?

Not at all. I'd be on the phone right this second. We aren't winning squat with 1 superstar on defense. I'd rather add 3-4 more premium pieces to the D.
