ok, while i disagree, i'll go down this path. what is the cost to trade parsons? to be honest, im not sure. now, who wants to give up (2) 1sts for him?
to do what you're suggesting is what should have been done BEFORE those (2) contracts. the fact you're saying this is a good way to handle overpaying, to me, is like saying someone who just did (2) monumentally stupid things will suddenly get smart.
im gonna say "no" on that one.
Look, I'll concede that Jerry screwed up, and I've been fuming about a lot of his offseason activity. But the best way, to me, to try to fix the problem is to try to get as many draft picks.
As far as Parsons goes, I could see a team who really needs a pass rusher. I would say someone like the Ravens, Bengals (who's defence is atrocious and would love to have Parsons), maybe the Rams (they could use pass rushers and they've been known to trade firsts), and a few other teams.
Obviously, it's not ideal, but that's the situation Jerry has put the team in imo. Given that he seldom spends anyway on FA, may as well try to load up on picks as much as possible.
