Rich Eisen: What Trading for Micah Parsons Means for the Green Bay Packers’ Super Bowl Aspirations

42 comments

1. I hate Jerry Jones

2. 600 like$!!!

3. Rich! You have invite Tom Grossi on!

4. I think Rich is off on this… I’d argue there’s more and has been more dominant DT vs DE in the last 10 years.

5. First round exit for Green Bay.

6. My guess is neither one of these two teams really ends up in a Super bowl anyway.

7. Michael Persons was already overpaid in Dallas, he couldn't shed blockers, and he ran his head.
   Move on…. let's play ball.🏈

8. Means they overpaid for Micah

9. This trade singlehandedly opens the packer's super bowl window and closes the cowboys

10. Dallas was predicted to finish towards the bottom end of the league this year WITH Micah… why would you keep him for $47m? Dallas just needs to trade others and get some draft capital for 2027

11. Cowboy’s lost the trade, but it’s not the worst trade in the world. The problem is Jerry doesn’t know how to build a team, and no one can get rid of him. His massive ego only gets worse with age/dementia.

12. I hate dallas but they won this trade, the only way GB wins this trade is if they* WIN the SB, not appear but win cause 47mil for a player thats not a QB is crazy

13. Paying 47 million is crazy for getting maybe 1 sack and 4 tackles a game, most quarterbacks arent making that much

14. I'm just here for TJ's tears.

15. Theres no way Micah plays too many snaps week 1 you need him ready for the end of the year and playoffs dont rush him to play right away he hasnt been training

16. Cannot wait to see him sack dak for a nfl record 10 times in one game 😂😂😂😂

17. When was the last time a pass rush trade resulted in a Super Bowl win?

18. You forgot Charles Woodson as a big time move

19. From dealing with him twice a year, we all know the bigger the moment, the smaller he plays. He is a stat padder.

20. Micah is so overrated ESPECIALLY for that price. All he can do is rush the qb. A linebacker that’s to egotistic to play the position he should play. Can’t win a championship in the first 8 weeks of the season 🤣

21. Th Pack Attack is back!

22. The lions are still going to shot on the packers week 1. This changes nothing

23. Jones spending the last 30+ years trying to convince everyone that he was responsible for those 3 superbowls won in the early 90's. I guess he's finally gonna rest his case, your honor.

24. Packers arent a sb contendor. You cannot contend for a sb when you finish last in your division.

25. I am so relieved he went to GB, I thought for sure he was coming to the AFC West and not to the Raiders. Somebody polish that turd😮😅😅😅😅

26. gm gives you elite pass rusher and rookie wr… dries up the salary cap and mortgages the next two drafts. Hope you don't need any other positions for a while boy, woooo. For a team that came in second to last place in their division last season.

27. As a long time Packer fan, I still can't believe this trade happened. It's Christmas in August for Packer fans. LETS GO!! 💚 💛

28. Can't speak on the lockerroom, but it does seem weird he was buddy buddy loved by everyone beforehand, but now he was a lockerroom and to my knowledge outside of football he seem to be a well enough person can't say I've heard anyone say anything bad about him

29. JJ is a moron. He thinks he's getting two first round picks? You still have to pay the first round picks Jerry! You can't win the game you're trying to play. My only regret is that he didn't go to the Eagles. Now I have to wait until Sept 28 to see Micah destroy the Dallas O.

30. Still looking up to Philly

31. 🦁’s⭐️P. Sewell⭐️🏈Will Handle Him💯

32. Only 2 1st round picks for Parsons is ridiculous too

33. It means they have a foundational cornerstone for their defense who will catapult them into the legitimate contenders’ league. But they still have a questionable coach (good schemer but a below average leader) an inconsistent and injury-prone QB who should have developed much further by now and the hour is late, and they still don’t have the kind of bodies in the trenches to match the physicality of the Eagles and Detroit (and maybe no Chicago) offensive lines that control games and have the greatest impact on the outcome of games.

34. The Pack are paying 35% of their salary budget to two guys in 2026. Does no one see where that's going? They had better win in 2025 because they're dead until at least 2030 after this season.

35. Whatever is going on in NY and Dallas, I hope Philly doesn't catch it!

36. The trade does NOT mean the Packers will win the Super Bowl.

37. Him and love have the same agent

38. The cancer is gone from the locker room!

39. Go pack go. Finally drafting a rd 1 WR, and making big time free agent moves.

40. If you wanna make the case that Parsons isn't worth 47 mil or that the Cowboys will be better off with Clark and the picks fine. But the real reason that the trade was terrible is because of the timing. If Dallas has signed Micah last off-season it would have cost ~10 mil less. If they were really planning to move on they should have traded him back before the draft when more teams had the picks and cap space to get a bidding war started. Obviously Jerry thought he could talk Micah's price down and prove that he's such a genius negotiator. When he couldn't he had a temper tantrum and traded him with minimal leverage.

41. Geriatric Jones (spelled correctly) just brought in the worst head coach hire of the season on first impression and dumped his best defensive player. He just gave the Giants a chance for third in the division.

42. So he goes from one bad team to another, the Lions are still the champions of the North!!!
