We could run the ball at him, haha
In all seriousness I'm a firm believer that Parsons has 2, maybe 3 more peak years left.
He's undersized and his game is predicated on rare athleticism. If any of that athleticism leaves, he won't be worth the mega deal the Jones family is bound to pay him.
Trade him for the best value while we can.
Are you able to provide historical data for Parsons position and what the top earners have been paid over the last 15 years in relation to cap?
I find the wording you are using as unfair IF IF IF Parsons' 30M contract is in line with percentage of cap for TOP RUSHERS over the past 15 years.
You are making it sound like Parsons will be 3-5% more against the cap.
Deals for NFL players are only going to keep rising with 30 teams and revenue jumping. The NFLPA agreed on the players getting 48% or whatever...and that 48% is what leads to a cap of 255M...of which each team has to spend at least 90% of the 255M.
The players are generating the money and the owners are getting their 52%. MEGA DEAL based on being a top player in a profession that is generating 15Billion a year seems right to me.
Everything about that wording is unfair unless the player is asking for like 5% more than any other top player at the position. I know you dont care....but the Owners are the ones getting the mega deals here.
Can you provide proof that Parsons doesnt deserve top earner percentage cap at his position...and then provide proof that he is asking for too much compared to historical data?
