The team already exercised his fifth year option. If they don’t sign him to an extension they will be paying him $21.324 million for the 2025 season. And it all hits the cap for next season. No wiggle room.
I believe the Cowboys have gotten the best out of Parsons, now that the league knows about him, they're chipping, double teaming, you name it and other teams are throwing everything but the kitchen sink at him..........and it's working! Parsons get's tired easily anymore, that's why he looks like he's gassed in the in the 1st qter. I say trade the young man and get some desperately needed draft picks that could land another stud on a ROOKIE contract because as the Cowboys sit now too much CAP money is going out on TWO players.
I would disagree with that.
Those other teams have intelligent, full-time GM's. Ours traded Amari for a 5th to the Browns. The Browns turned around and traded him to the Bills for a 3rd and a 7th for Cooper and a 6th. On top of that, Jerry traded a 4th for a failed QB he won't even try to play.
Well, you got to see what % of ‘fans’ want him traded. The lunacy that takes place within the four walls of this forum are unbelievable.
It's more like Stephenthink. He thinks we have no cap space when we do.
That was five years ago. Things have changed since then. Almost all the trades involving multiple firsts for a player proved regrettable for the team that gave up the draft capital. And since that stupid trade, the price of QBs, WRs, and edge rushers has ballooned. Early draft picks are a way to acquire good talent with four years of cost control. They allow a team to build a roster and afford to pay their stars.
So let's say we got 2 first round picks in a trade and with the money saved we could sign Tee Higgins and still have an extra $10M to spend that would have gone to Micah.
A real GM would at least explore what was being offered. This would also be an indicator of what he is actually worth compensation wise.
maybe you re new to the Cowboys,Signing one of the best pass rushers in the NFL or trading him.You guys must want to be irrelevant.
He’s worth considerable pay, but not if you have to give up draft capital for the opportunity to be the team that pays him.
Trading Cooper had far more to do than trade value and you know it.
I just don't think we'd get the kind of trade that is worth losing Parsons for. Now if we were trading for a first and a third knowing we were getting a great draft position and a potential franchise QB from that draft pick? Sure. But past that, it's not worth it in my opinion because of the attention he forces on other teams to stop him. I also don't trust the front office to get the value he's worth in a trade. They like JAGs way too much with their analytics. They've been reactive the whole time rather than proactive. Dak's contract and his subsequent sucking might force Dallas' hand though.
