Exactly…that is the elephant in the room. The QB decision. My hunch tells me that JJ wouldn’t have the stomach to do it though. I think Jimmy wouldTo me, it's not about Parsons, it's about Prescott.
If they decide he's the future, then Parsons is most likely signed but what if they decide to move on and go for a stud QB in the draft like Williams?
Any non-QB a better move up chip into that #1 spot without having to meet the draft values? You can throw away that chart if the Cowboys are willing to trade Parsons.
Let's say the team holding the #1 pick isn't ready to go QB in this draft. The Cowboys dangle Parsons in front of them, what do you think their GM is going to do?
The first decision to be made is at QB and will there be a better time to make a change than this upcoming draft with Parsons in his prime and probably the hottest ticket to the top of the draft? Think there will be a no trade clause in Parson's next contract?
This is my exact view and it extends to how we handle Diggs, also.To me, it's not about Parsons, it's about Prescott.

https://www.nfl.com/news/next-gen-s...-2022-reigning-nfl-dpoy-nick-bosa-ranked-but-Parsons finished third in total QB pressures (70). Yes, his pressure rate was lower in ’22 than it was in ’21, but that’s because he stepped into a role in which he rushed the passer more often (427 pass-rush snaps in ’22; 279 in ’21). His 43 hurries were the third most of any defender in the league. His 13.5 sacks bested his previous career-high mark of 13 and his five turnovers caused by pressure were the second most in the NFL.
And won several super bowlsTo this owner? Absolutely
To a guy like Belichick, not so much. He has traded his best D player before a bank breaking deal had to be made. And he's done that several times.
It's not a stupid thread, it's just really the wrong question. I think everyone would agree that he is the sort of player worthy of a record breaking deal. The real question should be "for which team?"You’ll get bashed for good reason
To say this this is stupid thread is being nice
Honestly, judging by their recent comments, I'm convinced they are sold. Hell, just the other day, MM pretty much called Dak a smart, HOF-type QB. Stephen recently said extending Dak won't be anywhere near as hard as getting his current deal done coz most of the money is already baked into the budget ( other words, he only needs to add $11M to his current average per year to put him over $50M ).If they decide he's the future,
Thanks for following it up w another stupid questionIt's not a stupid thread, it's just really the wrong question. I think everyone would agree that he is the sort of player worthy of a record breaking deal. The real question should be "for which team?"
I worry about his health, he's undersized as an edge player and plays with wreckless abandon. Great stats and play, but at what cost. He is constantly limping around. They need to be smarter with his play. If he's healthy when the time comes and keeps his level of play, he will probably be the highest payed defensive player in the NFL....no need to rush it. If they don't want to break the bank, keep sending him and don't worry about his long-term health. Chew him up and spit him out. That's the way it works.I know I'll get bashed, I know it's not time, but we have to get our thoughts ready for this record breaking deal. In his first season, he blew the league by surprise because obviously no one knew what he could do as a rookie.
2nd season, I think we as fans are still living in the bubble of his first season. With these players, we need to go case by case, season by season. Every year there seems to be a new dominant player, or a team that comes out of nowhere to surprise everyone.
I said that to say, let's take Micah since he's the topic of this post, on a season by season basis. Year one was dynamic, year two, he was good, but often burned out! I've never seen a second year player burned out like that......
Contractually and I REALLY don't care what he gets, it's neither my money or yours. I just think we're basing his every move off of year one. I'd like to see him be that dominant force in the league, to me there's a few guys ahead of him.
He said weeks ago that he wants to affect the game and he isn't worried about sack totals. Believe it or not, I almost cried hearing that!!! It's not just about sack numbers, but what else you can do, to have that ultimate impact on the game.
So let's see what he does this year by taking over games and doing what he needs not worrying about numbers!! Once again I will get bashed and I accept it!!! Please give your thoughts!!
