PFT: Parsons gives Jerry some contract leverage

[Hawkeye0202]

Maybe, maybe not ............he did say his agent may disagree with some of his words. Hell, Jerry is still going to pay him a boatload of money, and rightfully so, he's earned it.

This isn't going to sit well with the Hate Parsons crowd.

"I’m Jerry’s guy,” Parsons said, via Todd Archer of ESPN.com

Do we need to know anything beyond that statement?

He'll be signed for TOP Dollar.

 

[CWR]

This isn't leverage at all.

Its not as if Jerry will be able to hold him to it.

Parsons will get paid what he wants to get paid.

 

[Creeper]

I love what he is saying because it is truth. Making $30 million a year, in one year he would earn more than 90% of Americans in one year than they will make in a lifetime. Of course $40 million is more but he can still live a comfortable life.

I have no problem if he asks for as much as the market will pay but what he says is truth.

Seems like a lot of money for a pass rusher who can’t stop the run. Could pay half a defense that money for better results imo.

They don’t spend in free agency……

He can stop the run.

 

[Dools29]

He can stop the run.

Way too undersized. 3rd and 1, run right at him.

 

[erod]

He can stop the run.

No he can't. Teams run right at him at will. He's too small to be a defensive end against a run blocking tackle. When they pass protect, he's too quick for them, but when they run block, he can easily be overpowered.

He’s actually been quite improved in the run game this year. He is too small to be lined up on the inside shoulder of a T, but that’s more so on your DC.

You mean 99.99%

No, he gets steamrolled. Sure, he can chase a run play down on the opposite side, but if they run at him, he gets plowed over often.

 

[Coogiguy03]

He can stop the run.

Barely

Evidenced by the fact that they had such a good defense prior to Parsons arrival…..

 

[HungryLion]

He can stop the run.

When you’re right. You’re right.

People act like Parsons is useless against the run which isn’t true.

He isn’t great at the point of attack. But he is very good at running plays down from behind at the line, stopping outside runs, etc.

He is an average run defender overall but an elite pass rusher.

But what about the brotherhood? So selfish.

 

[HabsCowboysOwn]

He‘ll never live up to whatever contact they give him, should be traded for a king’s ransom.

But obviously it won’t happen because Jerry is a low IQ senile bozo with no vision so give him 70M/yr for all I care. Team is doomed anyway.

 

[SpaceCowboy99]

He can stop the run.

No he can't. This is why he's a no show against run heavy teams. If we sign this clown,.well nevermind we are good at signing clowns. I would love to see us stop trying to have to the highest paid position players in the league. It's not a good thing, especially for our team.

This, it doesn't matter what Parson says... the only thing that matters is what his agent says/is willing to agree to. There is only one reason they pay these agents as much as they do, and that is to get top dollar under any circumstances. Period!
