Jerry Jones will not let him go with 2 franchise tags in his pocket unless he receives a Herschel Walker type deal. Parsons can sit out all he wants but Dallas holds all the power and Parsons will not throw away that kind of fortune. Every unhappy DE/Edge is linked to the Bears, Poles will explore it, but doesnt need to. He can address that next season like he has done with DBs, WRs, and Oline.

the odds of the Bears getting Parsons are considerably more likely that winning the lottery. I have said that it probably wont happen because of the trade value needed. But I also think the contract length and cap space would be FINE. Youre just muddling it all together and saying it wont happen - and youre probably right, but NOT because of synced contracts or cap space - thats where youre wrong. And when you say he doesnt fit the scheme, thats just insanity. Micah Parsons fits EVERY scheme. Every team in the league would take him if they could afford him. When you say we already have Dayo, so we dont need Parsons thats where youre absolutely smoking crack.

I truly dont understand your thinking. The whole point of having a QB on a rookie deal is to have cap space to add highly paid players while you can afford them BEFORE you pay Caleb. What do you think the benefit of having players with deals that end with Calebs is? On one hand they are around until then, you dont lose them early - but what would be the downside of having a great pass rusher who has a contract that extends beyond Calebs? Im think you dont understand why the contracts are synced - and think there is some benefit to it that you dont understand? The problem here is what the trade would cost, not the cap or contract.

No, just the right ones. Ball Busting 101: clearly states that anything and everything can and will be used against you. If you say never, someone else is gonna come in and offer a counter. This guy ain't taking your bet...🍻

Just like anyone elses opinion, IMO, I dont see any chance of it happening. If I feel strongly about something, I am now suppose to use certain words? Lots of members have strong opinions on subjects but I have to watch what words I use? I have a 100$ willing to bet it doesnt happen. Anyone want that bet, we can send the money to Adam and sit back and see if it happens. That's how certain I am its not happening. Now let me state, I have lost lots of bets before because I like gambling but I also have won before.

Same era. Charles Haley That's why I screw with you. We've all seen shocking trades, so it's possible. Never, being your operative word, should never be used when discussing things you personally can't control. It can eventually bite you in the arse. It's a beautiful Sunday afternoon and I have have nothing better to do whilst watching the Cubbies...🍻🤪

You just like me dont think we are going to trade for Parsons. You like me dont want them to. Is it necessary to argue that (it could happen), I think its a wasted discussion. You literally brought up the best reason that we arent going to trade for a high end pass rusher, it doesnt get you to the SB. The top 5 are in what ever order you like Garrett-Watts-Parsons-Crosby-(Hendrickson-Bosa-Hutchenson) All were drafted by the teams they are with, first yr contract advantage. Only Bosa made a SB game out of those choices. I would like someone to show me a top end pass rusher that they traded for and went to a SB? Its possible there is one but in aint in the last 10 yrs at least. The only one I can think of was GB trading for Reggie White in 1997. Your welcome to try to find one.

Yeah, betting odds should 20-1 for staying in Dallas. Since we control Caleb for these next four years, nothing is set in stone with our cap space. Here's a scenario: Bears receive: Micah Parsons, Jack Sanborn and Cowboys 2026 2nd round pick. Cowboys receive: Dayo, Tremaine Edmunds and Braxton Jones. Also receive: Bears 2026 1st and 3rd round pick and 2027 2nd round pick. Creativity is bad bitch in the league. They can always find ways to wisely move money around to make ways to pay greatness.

I think its quite stated, he is going to go to a SB contender. If your Micah, you have some control over where you go only if Dallas decides to trade him. As much I think the Bears will become a contender this yr, does Parsons believe that? Who has the cap space and ability to absorb a 40+ contract in the future? We dont. On that list NE and the Raiders dont qaulify as contenders but both have great preceived coaches that may be able to talk him into it. Its a multi phased answer. We dont have the Cap space-everything is set for paying Caleb in 2028 with the contracts already constructed. We brought in a respected D coach that Parsons does not fit his scheme. Of course he is a major talent but who are you setting down to play him? You just paid 15 mil to Dayo and you are paying Edmunds 17 mil this yr. You can not get out of lots of dead money if either was to leave. We signed Dayo, Jarrett and drafted Shemar Turner. Have a preceived difference maker already on the team in Sweat. Traded a draft pick to get Booker last year. (is he kicking that to the side to pay out a 40+ contract? With bringing in BJ and drafting Loveland and Burder to go along with DJ Moore-Rome-Kmet, we are clearing changing the assets to offense in the last few yrs since we drafted Caleb. Are we throwing all in for spending big on defense now? I think the draft will decide our defensive players. It is just what I think the Bears will do and not do. If there was betting odds on it, it would be very high on not trading for him.

Thanks for washing my time. There's not one darn thing in that article that lays out why the Bears are not in the running for Parsons. Again, I'm not for trading for him, but damn.

This article lays it out quite well why the Bears are not in the running for a trade for Micah. https://nfltraderumors.co/six-trade-proposals-for-micah-parsons/

There is a 1 in 34,000,000.00 chance I could win the lottery, but I would be safe to say that isnt going to happenl.

Its a GMs job to check everything out that is normal business. BUT if you look at all of his contracts, the stars of the team all come do in 2027 and 2028. He sets up outs the year before. Adding a 40+mil player disrupts all the work he did to get to the day Caleb has to be paid. He said he wants to build thru the draft. Trading several high picks to get one player throws that out the window. He made a trade in the second round this year to get 3 2nd round picks. All with the chance to be core players. I dont think he throws his long range plan away to get a player as AZ54 said would be a situational pass rusher in this defense. This year he picked up Dayo, drafted Turner who should be able to play in and out. Signed Jarret to help with the pass rush. No way he signed Grady and Dayo to throw away the plan of a 40+ mil player. The thought of a high end pass rusher is intriging but he traded for Sweat, 2 yrs ago to be that player and paid him which looks like a cheap deal now. He had a great first year and in the second yr was injuried with a dysfuntional coach. BJ has stated several times how good Sweat looks this preseason. I trust BJ's opinion. Trading for Micah is just a passing thought that will never happen.

we still might get him! who knows? I can tell you Poles is looking into it 100%.

FB is full of crap. Thank you for verifying. The taking less had me intrigued and I was excited to share.

Sadly, Parsons didnt say hed take less to go to Chicago. That was a hoax unfortunately.

I'm making some assumptions in saying this, but adding Parsons could make this a complete roster that could go as far as their production takes them. Meaning, this may not be the year we win a Superbowl, but a lot of these guys are the players that are going to do it, so if you add a real edge rusher, youre that much closer. Sounds like we would have to make a deal with Dallas, and that isnt gonna be easy. And it might just be too rich.

Less than what? The problem is we'd have to compensate two people: him and the Cowboys' owner.

He said he'd join for less....

I just dont see the Bears dropping all the picks and then the cash. If the Bears show they are contenders this season and someone like Parsons is available next year that will put the Bears in that drivers seat, I'd be completely on board. Also, if it is only one 1st, id be fine. But it will more.

It would definitely peak my interest...

for sure. but if he is available, and we can get him, we should.

I suspect you are right. He will get paid, and if not Jerry will want a ransom in picks. I just hope we get lucky and something happens where we could get him.
