We’ve been through all this. The Bears gave up a haul for Khalil Mack a few years ago. We haven’t extended him yet because of what we paid for Dak and CeeDee. We have a ton of our cap on two players. Not many teams have put that kind of money on two players and are considering paying a third player that kind of money.Contenders know better than give up draft assets for a very expensive edge rusher. That’s the difference between teams that know what they’re doing and those that struggle to figure out how to genuinely compete for a Super Bowl. Few teams need defensive line help more than the Dallas Cowboys and they haven’t extended Parsons. And they don’t have to give up anything assets to acquire him.
Not many teams are in a position to add that kind of compensation to their roster. Fewer can afford to give up draft assets to acquire a single player. Contenders are just that because they already have expensive talent.
