The Dallas Cowboys now have enough funds to solve the loopholes in their team, after trading their star Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers in exchange for Kenny Clark and two first-round draft picks.
Since the beginning of August, Clark had always wanted a better deal away from the Cowboys before the upcoming season, and he got it.
He would sign a four-year $188 million deal, with $136 million guaranteed, which is the highest for a Pro-Bowl edge rusher in league history.
It was a strange trade, especially since Parsons was one player who could deliver anytime. What club would part with their best player rather than offer a better deal to keep him? It was insane.
But the Cowboys had a pattern of waiting before they offered their best players what they deserved. After a back-and-forth with Parsons that turned ugly, the franchise owner, Jerry Jones, thought it was in the company’s best interest to offload Parsons and save more money.
“I never wanted this chapter to end, but not everything was in my control,” Parsons said.
“My heart has always been here, and it still is. Through it all, I never made any demands. I never asked for anything more than fairness. I only asked that the person I trust to negotiate my contract be part of the process.”
Parson’s record speaks for itself. He’s a two-time All-Pro and a three-time Defender of the Year finalist in his four seasons, which is a crazy record for a rookie.
With this trade, the Cowboys’ defence has taken a big hit, and you can only wonder if they’ll ever get a player like Parsons again.
His entry into the Green Bay Packers’ team would strengthen their defence and probably give them consistency, a virtue they have struggled with in the last few years.
Micah registered 52.5 sacks, 256 tackles, nine forced fumbles, nine passes defensed, and four fumble recoveries in four seasons and is one of the only four players in NFL history to make it to the Pro-Bowl in each of their first four seasons.
