The Cowboys need to make a decision on Micah Parsons soon

[thunderpimp91]

I imagine the Micah decision has already been made. Honestly if they really wanted to move on from the guy last offseason was the time to do it. A premier pass rusher that still had a cheap year of rookie control in addition to his 5th year option? He would have brought back QB value on the trade market. This year where a team is going to have to give up something in a trade and likely make him the top defensive player of all time? Its a harder trade pitch unless you're willing to take less back in the trade.

Right or wrong, that decision is already made. Jerry will sign Parsons to a top of the market deal....no question about it. There's no way we are trading for Garrett or any other high priced DE. The team will go with Parsons, Kneeland, Williams, hopefully resign Golston to a moderate deal, and then do what they've been doing with veteran pass rush depth.

I don't expect or even really care about Dallas signing A-list free agents like DE Garrett or WR Higgins. I don't think we are that player away from greatness; it's much worse. However, I want to see Dallas be a little more active with B-list veteran free agents, maybe sign a LB, a DT, a backup QB, maybe a CB. We need to be freed up in the draft to take the impact players who available on the first two days of the draft at WR, RB, DT.

No doubt, but I think we could be using freed up cap space to get someone like a Kinlaw (NT Jets) or a guard. They wouldn't command much cap space, but they'd fill some key needs before the draft.

So you trade him to Jacksonville as a rental. Why would they be interested in trading?

Why wouldn't they if they can afford to pay him? Why would he be a rental. Normally the condition on these trades is the player agrees to an extension.

I'm fine with trading him. Either decision should be made and executed by the start of the new league year.

How's the time but we've seen how they operate. Then they'll say they had no choice but to cave to the agents demands.

Barnum and Bailey have made their minds up when it comes to Parsons. I believe they are going to re-sign him to a monster deal.

The problem is these guys are likely to string it along until the last minute. They will leak negative things about Micah. They will use their usual quotes about the "pie", "managing the cap", "the cap is real", and then sign him to the biggest contract a defensive player has ever signed.

All done post draft. So, no 2025 trade value nor free agency cap space. Smh

In what is still the immediate aftermath of the ridiculous Wilson trade, no team is trading valuable draft capital for a $30 million per season player without getting draft capital in return. Dallas can’t get anything close to what they have in Parsons in any trade. He’ll be signed at some point. Obviously, the sooner the better.

Oh no doubt, I'm just saying what a smart GM would do lol. Either keeping him or trading him, a smart GM would have it ready and done by the start of the league year.

Why would he want to play in Jacksonville, for a poor team?
