Get Mazi out of here, get someone else in
 
Green Bay has had the youngest NFL roster the past 3 seasons (including 2025).

Green Bay has also won exactly 1 playoff game over the past 4 seasons (in Dallas after the 2023 season).

Never mistake youth for productivity. Philly has the 2nd youngest roster and Howie has 13 picks in the 2026 draft. I suspect that Philly will be dealing for veterans should the need arise.

Meanwhile, Green Bay will continue to hoard its draft picks, stay young, and not be a genuine threat to compete for a Super Bowl ... much like the 3rd youngest team.
Packers issue is they just aren’t good enough. It happens. But they are on the right track.
 
Look, we're complete morons if we trade Micah. A HoF talent for nothing but question marks drafted by a team that is very hit and miss.

That said, if we're going to trade him, send him to the Saints or the Panthers or the Jets. The only way it'd be worth it is if we get the next franchise QB.
 
He's a lazy toddler you want them to get rid of but also worth keeping unless the Cowboys get three 1sts?
I would love 3 1st round picks.

Problem is, Packers are good, young team. They are going to be in the playoffs and picking 24 or higher everyone of those years.

Just not worth it to me. Tennessee? Jacksonville? No brainer.
 
Yes. If it’s a team Micah would rather not play for his agent would tell that team he’s not going to sign with you. Based on current circumstances the interested team would believe him. And the interest would be gone.
Exactly.......there is zero chance ANY team is giving up draft capital W/O a guarantee from his agent on a new deal. THIS is Parsons' leverage........
 
Agreed. He is everything you said, except I do believe he shows empathy and emotion. That's why I went with the alternative.
This should by no means serve as proof, but I would interject some people are empathic narcissists:

5 Signs You Are Dealing With an Empathic Narcissist (link)​

Some narcissists (not those who have NPD) are not devoid of emotion and empathy. Their aptitude for either can be average or below in comparison to others, but their cognitive empathy can make both appear above average.

If applicable, Jerry Jones can show much or even great empathy and not have genuine feelings matching what he outwardly expresses. I will use Jones and Micah Parsons' relationship as an example.

On one hand, Jones has shown he is Parsons' biggest advocate among all human beings before Parsons instructed him to conduct any contract negotiations through his agent. He showered Parsons with praise constantly, both as a person and professional football player. It could be suggested Jones did so a tad more than the average owner or general manager. He has always enjoyed hyping whatever he is selling. Regardless, he has demonstrated both emotion and empathy for Parsons.

On the other hand, Jones (being Jones) has gone the extra mile propagandizing himself as the wounded victim in the public's eye in regard to the contract extension stalemate. It is an atypical reaction and effort in comparison to how the majority of owners and/or general managers have addressed similar impasses in their player/club contractual negotiations for the world to see.

Perhaps a truly empathic Jones would take both his personal grievance and Parsons' decision into consideration by not making the entire situation into an unnecessary public melodrama..? Understanding how Parsons' feels about getting the issue resolved neither dismisses Jones' disagreement nor supplies Parsons any leverage in the matter. A certain mindset will not see it that way though.

Just my two cents.
 
Parsons is obviously the best defender on the Cowboys and makes a case for being the best defender in the NFL.

On the other hand there are many superior level defenders in the NFL. How many NFL defensive players would you consider to be in the same tier level as Parsons. It is not limited to Parsons’ position. The other players can play any position as long as it’s on defense.

Now think about this: Is Parsons likely to perform better than a majority of that group over the next 5 years and how many new players will arrive that will escalate to Parsons’ tier and how many of those player will Parsons likely out perform?

When you look at this situation though this lens from my point of view the probability that paying Parsons to be the top defender in the league doesn’t look like a winning cap strategy.
1. Parsons has never led the NFL in sacks, and that's really his best trait because he doesn't play the run very well.

2. Parsons has never won Defensive player of the year.

He definitely gets a ton of pressures, but without counting age, just ability and production, I'd take Garrett, Watt, Crosby, and Hendrickson over him right now. Then there are a few DT's I'd rather have, along with a couple of DBs.

In 2023, Parsons had the most sacks of his career, 14, and finished 8th in sacks.
In 2021, he had 13.5 and finished 3rd. Those were his two best seasons.

If someone wants to give me a huge hall and make him the highest paid non QB in the NFL, I'll take it.
 
Steward was a udfa last year for the Bears where Eberflus was HC/DC. He's better in slot coverage than Childress but not as good at stopping the run.

Bridges was the 7th round pick of the Chargers this year.
Steward played one reg season game spentost of his time on ps.

Im not knocking dude, just seems weird they'd opt for him over Childress right now when Childress had a good strong camp.

My post is more about how thin we are there and a vet is needed in my opinion.
 
I think Micah is a bit better than Crosby, yes.

But Crosby signed a deal paying him about 35 average per year with only 62.5 total guaranteed. If Micah would take anything close to that, the deal would already be done.

Obviously Micah wants not just more than that, but far more.

Or should I say Mulugheta wants that, since Micah apparently is incapable of deciding these things for himself.
Crosby is three deals back.
 
Consider this: Last year we kept Trey Lance on the roster, paying him $5.3 million, and he played in ONE regular season game. Derrick Henry cost about $6 mil last year. And SJ said we couldn’t afford him.
That sums up the ineptitude perfectly.

Jacksonville doesn’t even have a first round pick in 2026. The “bad” teams are the ones that need more draft picks. Bad teams, like the Cowboys, are more likely to trade a good player for additional draft picks. No brainer.
