Jerry: Parsons is an integral part of the future

[gimmesix]

+1 honestly .....I think most of his critics know how good he is and can be a HOFer in the right scheme. His personality and off-field rub some the wrong way. As we have seen it is hard for some to separate their personal feeling from football talent.

And for some reason, fans fret over player salaries. I'll never fully understand that. Yes, I understand there's a cap, but plenty of teams have shown they can pay their top players market value and still manage the cap and win. The Joneses' free agent philosophy isn't based on the cap. The cap is used as an excuse when convenient, but there have been years, including this one, where we clearly could have done more in FA but didn't because of philosophy, not money.

Most SB teams spend 50% of the Cap on 3 players. I am pretty sure I read that was the key to success somewhere.

Yes, I think they covered that story in Mad Magazine.

Good luck being able to sign anyone worth a darn if they pay Parsons who’s best production already looks behind him.

 

[Adreme]

He is dead serious........Parsons is getting his contract or bag as some put it and be here for the next 3-5 years.

Jerry Jones, Cowboys see Micah Parsons as an "integral" part of the future​

Nov 08, 2024 at 12:31 PM

FRISCO, Texas – As the trade deadline approached last week, there was some speculation as to whether or not the Dallas Cowboys would move Micah Parsons. That speculation was baseless, and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones wants Parsons to be in the fold for the long run.

"No, absolutely not." Jones said on 105.3 The Fan when asked if the team had considered trading Parsons.

I mean even a broke clock is right twice a day. Trading a top 5 defensive player for 2 1s would be one of the stupidest things you could do as a GM.

 

[exciter]

Well his price just went up because Jerry is running his mouth. Again.

Lol,
His price went up because Jerry said what anyone who can use simple logic already knew?

 

[baltcowboy]

I don’t want Parsons to be traded by the Cowboys but Jerry needs to shut up. Everything needs to be on the table. For once let some team make a crazy offer. You never know. Reminds me when Jerry said he wouldn’t trade Dak when we first franchised him. Even the Ravens let Lamar dangle with the non exclusive franchise tag. Some front offices get it, others don’t.

 

[Blue64]

KC pays Mahomes, Kelce, and Chris Jones top money. They also have the top paid Center, and top 5 OT in salary.

What’s your point? You want to compare Mahomes to Dak, or Jones to Parsons.
Those players play each and every game at 125%
Can you say the same about Parsons who fades after week 10 and has done nothing in the offseason?

A few people have said it and I will say it as well… there is no accountability in Dallas.

We have an overhyped LB who some were comparing to LT…
He can be good at times, is he consistent… heck no

 

[shabazz]

Yes, I think they covered that story in Mad Magazine.

"What, me worry?"

 

[bewp7]

this team has no future

and it is all jerry fault

i laugh because i know jerry will never see another super bowl and he might never even see a single play off win

3 All pros and runner up for DPOY each season he’s played? DROY as well. Lol

Majority of Parsons sacks are against bad teams.

Plenty of teams, but you don't seem to remember those cap hell years that caused a similar lack of production like we see this year. The contracts and their pay do matter. If it was another GM managing it, then yes, you have a valid point. But we have a part-time GM who thinks he's a genius when he constantly just caves and gives players everything they want....which is a good way to get into another cap hell situation. I think that cap hell situation is what led to their current free agent philosophy.

Brandon Carr led to their current free agency philosophy. It was an overreaction to overspending for a good player. Instead of tweaking the philosophy to not overpay, they just decided to make sure they don't overpay by shopping cheaply. It had nothing to do with cap hell. Our cap hell days were over by then. We are not in cap hell now, we're in cap choice.

best post of yours in a while!!! love this!!!

or at times when they're not even important, never any game changing plays/FF

 

[Bagman]

Big name player. Big contract. Match made in heaven.

Jerry is hell bent on having shiny new players signed to multi-zillion dollar contracts. Looks good on TV. And it sells jerseys

 

[Rayman70]

His loyalty to his guys are a big problem.

 

[TequilaCowboy]

KC pays Mahomes, Kelce, and Chris Jones top money. They also have the top paid Center, and top 5 OT in salary.

The big difference is they are getting production from them after their big contracts AND winning when it matters. Worth the investment.., unlike these fools.

Well I think he was responsible for several INT's.
