Parsons traded to Green Bay (9 Viewers)

[msudaisy26]

How much of that $188 is guaranteed will matter, but that is a huge number. Detroit is still better than GB.

136 lol

Thats a lot of cheddar. Are the people laughing at my post Packers fans? Do people think GB > Detroit now?

I won't lie, i was very worried about the lions and don't get me wrong they're very good. Packers needed to be able to get after Goff and that shouldn't be so much a problem as it was looking. Here's to both teams staying healthy and a fight to the finish.

Long term I agree, but the game is 10ish days away for a guy that hasn't been practicing and he doesn't know the Green Bay system.

Yeah, I'm still a little worried about week 1. Nice it's at home, but there's probably some growing pains to start in a few places. It's a long season and I expect the Packers barring injury will be a force once everyone is full gas. This is a super bowl or bust kind of move.

It is super bowl or bust, but it isn't just for this year. Parsons is only like 26.

 

[eighsse2]

Sure Parsons is easily worth more than two 1sts, but man, two 1sts plus that deal?
Probably a good move by Dallas

Yeah I mean I don't know that it means anything to say "Is player X worth draft picks Y?" You're only trading for the contract, not the player himself, and the contract means you still have to pay him. So it depends on the dollar amount of the contract as much as it depends on the value of the player and the capital given in return. In this case two firsts seems a bit steep. Two firsts should get you a nice, favorable contract. So it's an overpay I think, but if they can afford it then that's good for them. And maybe good for both sides.

 

[Mr.Pack]

Holy **** am I excited

Reggie White level move

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

From an IDP perspective this is perhaps a big boost to Osa.

Probably a wash for Parsons?

GB D/ST gets a bump, DAL D/ST drops a little.

he doesn't know the Green Bay system.

Is it to not tackle the QB? Because I think he'll be ok.

Wow playing in the NFL is just that easy. Surprised more people can't do it.

ok

 

[Mr.Pack]

What did they give?

Hopefully not a ton given that contract

Gonna be huge if they actually dealt him.

I doubt it, honestly. If it's more than a single 1st, Green Bay is really "paying" quite the price

Kenny Clark and two 1sts

 

[Boston]

I think he is a generational linebacker like Ray Lewis, LT, Butkus. Those 3 changed the game. If Dallas really is going to rebuild then cool but it seems odd after grabbing Pickens. If they want to compete now then it's a terrible move. Pay the generational player whatever the **** he asks for. Unless you don't believe in Dak (I don't) but again they went and grabbed Pickens.

Maybe more moves to come is what I'm wondering.

Whether you like the move or not I don’t believe this was part of a long term strategy…Jerry overplayed his hand and was put into a corner…if this move is made in March it is part of a long term strategy…that is not the case here…that being said I can see how this could work out for them but if it does it is not because Jerry had a vision.

The generational talent that comes to mind here is now Reggie White.

ty forgot him

 

[oldmanhawkins]

Before he was dealt, I thought that Dallas locker room had the potential to become real toxic this year.

Why?

MCCarthy’s exit. I didn’t like him as a coach but he had credibility. Schott is lacking in that department and now he has to run the ship amidst all the organizational dysfunction caused by the owner and his son. And I fear Pickens will show the world just how big of a diva he is now that he’s not hidden in Pittsburgh.

How much of that $188 is guaranteed will matter, but that is a huge number. Detroit is still better than GB.

I think this narrows the gap big time. Their glaring weakness was pass rush. Takes a lot of pressure off the corners.

 

[Brunell4MVP]

As a WAS fan, I do not like this trade. Sure we don't have to see him 2x a year. Which is nice. But man, GB became a real SB contender. Wish he had been shipped to the AFC

 

[massraider]

Holy **** am I excited

Reggie White level move

Micah Parsons is one of two NFL players to have at least 12 sacks in each of his first four seasons.




The other was Reggie White.

The Packers were already the youngest team in the league and have now shaved few more years off the roster.

the weird thing is they (over)paid Dak. They paid Lamb. They paid Ferguson. They paid Diggs, Osa, Booker - pretty much everyone BUT the guy everyone thought would get paid got paid.

I don’t see the vision by Dallas here at all. They should have locked up Parsons for the foreseeable future.

I agree they painted themselves into a corner, ruined the relationship & this was plan B. It might well work out for them, but they’d be better with Parsons. You can’t easily replace that level of talent. And if they blow either or both of those 1sts on a bad pick, hoo boy this will go down as a franchise altering move.

I don’t want to get a TO this close to final season. So ill just let you go on thinking you aren’t full of crap

I'm full of crap for thinking getting Micah Parsons out of my division is a ....bad thing bc he went to the Packers

k

Most years you split with Dallas in regular season. Being an Eagles fan right now you should be worrying about the playoffs imo

But you do you

Many Eagles, Giants, Wash, and 9er fans would rather see Dallas crumble than their own teams win. It's that bad

Eagles fans, unlike those other fans, will be celebrating the unveiling of the MOST RECENT Super Bowl banner, but you already knew that.

All those guys didn't try to "Be in Power" like Micah did. Once Jerry realized Micah wasn't going to play by the rules Jerry set (which might even be against the NFLPA rules but I digress), the writing was on the wall. Its why Jerry never pays for a big free agent anymore. You are gonna get paid by him, you WILL do things the way HE wants.

I'm not quite sold yet. He's still pretty raw, but I'm all aboard him taking the next step. He just needs to develop more than a bull rush, he's certainly got the measurables.

[menobrown]

In a potentially rich QB draft, relative to where I project Green Bay and Atlanta's win totals, I think it's entirely possible the first round pick that the Rams will get from Atlanta to draft James Pearce will be worth more then the two first round picks Dallas got back for Parsons.

The entire post. Is he in the room down there? Where’s he come up with this ****?

Parsons has 12,14,13 n 12 sacks. I don’t think he ever had one after Christmas.
He hasn’t played the run well and his stupid podcast is annoying and a distraction. I’m on the record on this board last year saying just trade his ***. You think they should have paid him $50 mil per??
Yet Mr Terp is in here chirping like he’s the smartest guy in the room. And he’s the first to get butthurt if anyone posts anything in the eagles thread that isn’t pro Philly.

No cap flexibility or draft equity for the foreseeable future, and the roster, which still has serious holes, will start hemorrhaging contributors starting this coming offseason.All chips pushed in for 2025.

It may be just me and Thor on the island, but I'm with him.

I know everyone hates Dallas and thinks Jones is an idiot. But that's a lot to give up. Granted, they got a lot in Parsons.

But I don't love this for Green Bay.

I'm ok with it.

I like taking huge swings even if it means mortgaging the future. But that's a lot.

Gonna be huge if they actually dealt him.

I doubt it, honestly. If it's more than a single 1st, Green Bay is really "paying" quite the price

Kenny Clark and two 1sts

It’s pretty rare the team trading for the stud player needing huge money wins one of these. Especially for a non-QB. That’s a haul PLUS the mega contract.

Everyone overreacts because Micah is a known commodity. I got clowned the same way when Russell Wilson got traded to Denver and I said immediately Seattle won the deal.

The Packers’ window is shortened to like two years with this trade.

Dallas just opened theirs.

Dallas already has a ton of ridiculous contracts. Dallas did nothing other than add trade ammo if they decide to trade up for a qb this year. Even than, the GB picks will be, at worst, mid- 20s.

i don't know how anyone can say dallas won this trade. parsons is the betting favorite for DPOY. dallas wanted to keep him. jerry thought he did keep him. but then jerry lost parsons and in the wake, lost this trade. parsons was bringing a big return no matter what but you don't find a player of this caliber at that position very often. not through trade, not through free agency, and not through 1st round picks. if you have a chance to get one you go ahead and do it. no matter the cost. it's the kind of move that's earth shaking and can vault a franchise to greater heights. and green bay pounced. all possible because of jerry's bruised ego

i don't know how anyone can say dallas won this trade. parsons is the betting favorite for DPOY. dallas wanted to keep him. jerry thought he did keep him. but then jerry lost parsons and in the wake, lost this trade. parsons was bringing a big return no matter what but you don't find a player of this caliber at that position very often. not through trade, not through free agency, and not through 1st round picks. if you have a chance to get one you go ahead and do it. no matter the cost. it's the kind of move that's earth shaking and can vault a franchise to greater heights. and green bay pounced. all possible because of jerry's bruised ego

I'm a Bears fan. The only ones saying this is a bad deal for GB is salty Dallas fans

I didn’t realize @Joe Bryant was a cowboys fan lmao

I respect Joe immensely. I've been a part of these boards since the very beginning. No one bats 1.000.

What did they give?

Hopefully not a ton given that contract

Gonna be huge if they actually dealt him.

I doubt it, honestly. If it's more than a single 1st, Green Bay is really "paying" quite the price

Kenny Clark and two 1sts

It’s pretty rare the team trading for the stud player needing huge money wins one of these. Especially for a non-QB. That’s a haul PLUS the mega contract.

Everyone overreacts because Micah is a known commodity. I got clowned the same way when Russell Wilson got traded to Denver and I said immediately Seattle won the deal.

The Packers’ window is shortened to like two years with this trade.

Dallas just opened theirs.

Dallas already has a ton of ridiculous contracts. Dallas did nothing other than add trade ammo if they decide to trade up for a qb this year. Even than, the GB picks will be, at worst, mid- 20s.

A ton? Who? Dak and Lamb? You need to look at Dak’s contract. This isn’t a move for a QB. They have two firsts in the next two years to put high end players around all those guys now.

And they have cap space to pay others by not paying Parsons.

And they might be able to stop the run now with Clark.

They haven’t won anything with Micah on his rookie deal and they accepted that they were definitely not winning anything with him on a max deal.

Am I the only one who doesn’t like the Parsons trade for the Packers?

No cap flexibility or draft equity for the foreseeable future, and the roster, which still has serious holes, will start hemorrhaging contributors starting this coming offseason.All chips pushed in for 2025.

It may be just me and Thor on the island, but I'm with him.

I know everyone hates Dallas and thinks Jones is an idiot. But that's a lot to give up. Granted, they got a lot in Parsons.

But I don't love this for Green Bay.

I'm ok with it.

I like taking huge swings even if it means mortgaging the future. But that's a lot.

I think they both lost tbh.

Never been a big fan of paying twice like GB did with picks and salary. And without seeing the specifics of his salary it's hard for me to stomach how GB had to shoot so far over the other non-QB deals.

But two future 1's on a team that looks really good is also a weak return for Dallas. If they were going to do this kind of move it should have been before this years draft. They just got back less then the Jets did for Jamaal Adams and with the devaluation tied to future picks value I'd say less then Raiders got for Mack.

So to me this is a lose/lose deal but between the two I think Dallas lost the most.

There are short term wins and long term wins. If the Packers win a championship with Micah they’ll be happy.

I think Dallas opened a window to get better long term.
