Micah is challenging the front office to sign him before free agency and he'll give them a bit of a discount if they use that money to improve the team in March.

Now watch what they do. Nothing.
....and Micah's look on the face will be laughable, especially from his NFL brethren.

Pay parsons the nick bosa contract right now. It's a discount as of the moment and shows Parsons the cowboys value him. Dak should have signed for 55.1 million and done the same.
Dak may have signed for $55.1 (certainly more than unscathed Trevor Lawrence and potential Justin Herbert)........can't understand why Jerry has many fooled on this board.

True, but Dak also swore up and down 100x he is in the best shape of his life, and there were no remnant injury concers from when he lost his foot. I take Micah for his word, and his emotions on and off the field show he actually wants to win. As for our QB? Well, he's bullding a house, was caught wearing a boot on his paw claming to be healthy and telling anybody who sticks in front of his mug that he's in the best shape of his life
Since there is a gullible tone.....I have a beachfront house in Idaho for sale. Interested?

I remember when Dak agreed in principle to his 2nd contract only to have his agent sqaush it.
You’re probably correct but I'm remaining hopeful that there's a player out there somewhere that has the balls to actually believe it and stick by his comments.
(I know, I know, how gullible of me...lol)

It would be great if someone brought up that point to Parsons. (Dak's words against his actions)
You just wrote Dak's agent squashed it.....why wouldn't Micah's agent knock some sense into him too?

Right? Ware went from "overrated and can't get sacks", when he was on the team, to "one of the greatest players we've ever had", once he left and got a ring somewhere else.
That 'ole adage about pass rushing as a pack. Lining up on the other side from Von Miller, in one of the best defenses of all time really helped Ware and his public exposure.
What he did for us, with limited talent was probably more outstanding.
Similarly Micah's doing it with limited assistance.
I don't know how to interpret his comments, but what I hope he says (unlike Dak's approach), is, if I give up $$, I want guarantees as to 'support' on the defense

At some point a player has to realize that his agent works for him. Not the other way around.
I'm certain that Parsons will be paid well. QB contracts can be far more crippling to a team than a pass rusher contract.

Can't necessarily dispute.......however, watch this board once Micah gets his new contract.

Micah don't take a cheaper deal because you think you have to. Make Jerry pay you the most at your position. If Jerry won't do it, then some other owner will. No one that matters will blame you for making that happen.

I hope they don't win with Dak as a QB when you have a great player in Parsons willing to take less $ for the better of the team. While this so-called leader demanding to be the highest paid QB then utter "that's up to the front office" when they were 2-5 or 3-5 during trade deadlines.

Imagine we won the SB inspite of his QB play, Dak's ego would either want top 5 QB pay extension or be soo delusional that he'll say some BS like, I'll take less money to stay with the team for a repeat like he was needed.

You're wrong.....this board will be mad........at Micah. You're right......this board doesn't matter.

Micah is an elite defender. I have no issue with him getting paid elite money. I have an issue with a bum quarterback being paid elite money as it wrecks the whole team.
