  • Parsons?

    I've read/heard that the Packers offered two #1s, a #2, and a "talented defensive player" for Parsons. And of course, Parsons would get ridiculously big money. Is this a good idea - if in fact it is true at all, not fake news?

    My first take on this is that if Jerry Jones doesn't think Parsons is worth that much, then the Packers should back off such a deal. Parsons is good, for sure, but THAT good? I sorta doubt it.

    If we could get him cheaper, though, then maybe.

    I think the Packers have inquired about Parsons, but I highly doubt they offered that package. It's possible that someone from Dalas leaked that as what they are asking. That is what teams trade up to get a franchise QB, not a LB.

      Then there's this irrefutable source.

      Source: The #Packers offered two first-round picks, a second-round pick, and a fifth-round pick for #Cowboys DE Micah Parsons.

      Jerry and Stephen Jones declined.

        I never knew Tex's real name. Ernie. Holy shit that explains a lot.

        No way in hell we should trade the future of the franchise away for the right to hand out a record contract.

          Didn’t Love light his ass up in the playoff game? No impact tackles and zero pressure if I recall. Price doesn’t matter, J.R. Ewing can keep his trash in Texas.

                Its been widely reported. I would be good with 2 1sts plus other pics.

                  I wouldn't. That's way too much for one defensive player, unless he guarantees a SB win. That much draft capital is a mortgage the future for right now move, and the Packers have too many question marks for a move like this.

                    You want the Vonn Miller (LAR) outcome but you most likely get the Khalil Mack (Bears) result.

                      Reggie white stated God told him to sign with the Packers in 1993.

                      Unless he directs Parsons to sign with us, I’m out.

                        I was right there with you Fritz - but are you sure you didn't mistakenly post an image of Peter Dinklage? The resemblance is uncanny.

                          For once, I agree with you, bobblehead.

                          I still think Jerry Jones works things out and Parsons stays a Cowboy. If not, let somebody else give up that much to get him.

                            Affirmative, old foe - except for the “pics” - I ain’t queer, I reckon.

                            Punks like Bobble think the Packers would be jeopardizing the future by forgoing the rights to draft a bunch of Savages, Walkers, Wyatts, Miller/Mitchell/McNabb/McCoy/Morgans. Them bums ain’t anything special.

                            And I laugh out loud when punks like Bobble say, this player or that player ain’t worth this or that, as if them punks are paying the player’s salary. Guess what, punks, your Packer stocks are worth the same regardless of the Packers’ bottom line: zero.

                            Fuck yeah, trade for Micah Hyde, err, Parsons!
