Micah Parsons deal

[TequilaCowboy]

5 yrs, $1B, 5 car dealerships, 5 oil fields, and 1 local network affiliated tv station.

Plus 12 Papa John franchises and the keys to Jerry's yacht on alternating weeks in the spring and summer. Of course, no trade clause included. Get 'er done, Jerry.

How much is he going to cost us? I know he still has a couple years left on his rookie deal but I can see him getting 25 mill per. 6 year 150 mill with 100 million guaranteed?

Whatever he wants.

 

[RandyOh]

As much as it takes to keep him

 

[Cowboys93]

Guess we’ll be having Tyler Smith extension talk next

They have as much as 4 more years of control after this year (5th year tender because he was a first rounder, and then they can tag him, if need be). They have plenty of time to get his next deal sorted out. It’s gonna cost them, though. Will they try to classify him as a LB to get a cheaper deal, or will they do the right thing and offer him a deal for a top-flight edge rusher? Lots of wickets to jump through on his next contract…whatever his deal is, it’ll be the highest in the league for a defensive player at that time.

Diggs comes first
He will be the highest paid CB in the league
Micah will be the highest paid defensive player in the league

 

[Dak_Attack_09]

5-years, 250 million, 10% ownership

He ain’t getting more than Dak.

Steele contract talks

 

[Whirlwin]

By the time we sign him, Dak and Zeke (our biggest cap busts) will be gone. Not too worried.

Prescotts not going anywhere .so

 

[plasticman]

This is why the Cowboys didn't sign any big names to big contracts. This is why they are saving their surplus cap space. They want to carry it over to help sign these Cowboy players.

A big contract to OBJ all but insures he departure of these already valuable players.

I guess as problems go, it's a good one to have but you are right, the cap means hard decisions are often needed.

At the risk of derailing the original posters thread, I wish "home grown" players only counted 80% to the cap or something like that to reward good drafting.

That's what I've been saying for years. Drafted players account differently to the cap. You still can't buy a championship, but you're not hurt for drafting well. Maybe give 1-2 exemptions per team that don't account toward the cap and those only go to drafted players.

 

[Cowpolk]

Parsons is on the field stretching He looks fat

 

[cnuball21]

So 2 years until everyone here starts hating on Parsons? Dude is going to get paid.

Pretty much.

He’ll have a 9 sack year and everyone will lose their minds.

 

[Diehardblues]

Trade him for 3 1st round picks and 10 players. Draft our future HOF QB

 

[SuperBowlz]

I do with there was some cap discount when you resign players you drafted. Sometimes I hear people saying there should be no cap but I don't like that either... even though we have a rich owner. It would just take someone like Elon Musk to buy a team and build an all star team every single year.

 

[Mr_437]

Got 3 more years.

 

[plasticman]

Any NFL agent would advise Parsons to hold out after his third season. The Cowboys realize this.

Deal him to the Steelers for 3 firsts and 2 seconds

 

[erod]

I wouldn't. Diggs can leave. Not interested.

I want him here, but not crazy money.

I pay Micah crazy money without flinching.
