...The Cowboys and Quinn continue to downplay All-Pro Micah Parsons’ full-time move to defensive end, but there seems to be little doubt that he’ll be rushing the passer more than he has in his first two seasons
Parsons should be at DE on clear pass downs, but not on run downs.
He was already talking about getting run down last year. He's not DLaw and should not be used like DLaw. He's more like a 3-4 OLB of the past, but in our new pass happy NFL with only 2 LBs in the base, he ends up lined up at an ILB spot.
Although he's unlike previous era 3-4 OLBs in that he can really cover too.
If they think they should limit his snaps, then limit the LB snaps. He's already limited to 80%.
But he has great value at LB with the option to blitz and cover, with few if any in the league who can match him in that role. With another DE stepping up in the pass rush, Parons in that option role may be our strongest personnel package.
