I mean...we wouldn't call if we had no interest.  Their job is to generate clicks.

Oh absolutely, just the sensational why these things are portrayed (this tweet and Juan both want the clicks)

Slick Rick put out that Green Bay has a massive offer for Parsons on the the table but the fact Dallas isn’t budging shows that whole thing is Jerry being Jerry ie the spot light.

I get that, I’m just saying if they do pursue a player it should be for parsons, it is most likely not reasonable, but to me, so is Hendrickson bc of age and the contract he would command.

Im interested too, I’d happily give them a 3rd for him. I imagine this is just us doing due diligence, no way we give up anything meaningful for a 31 year old who wants 30M a year

We absolutely should try to trade for Hendrickson.

We have plenty of cap, and I can't imagine the deal will be longer than 3 years.

We're saving a ton on QB and most of the skill positions.

Invest in the lines. Pass rush is definitely the biggest concern on this defense right now.

The normal goofs who secretly root for this team to be bad are against it, but anybody who actually supports this team and wants to win knows this would be a great move.

I think its the only way we can really compete for the division this year sans the Bucs exploding with injuries.

We are nowhere close to competing for a deep post season run.   If we make this move, it's about someone in the front office or staff trying to save their job.

You try communicating that to Nicole Tepper

Makes no fuging sense man. We haven't been a competitive team in 7 seasons and we now should give up high draft capital and a huge contract for an aging pass rusher??

We literally JUST recovered from the Bryce trade and all of Fitterer's bullshit trades from the last several years. 2026 is set up to be our first draft in quite a while where we actually still have all of our original draft picks. I'd be so upset if we traded away anything higher than a 4th round pick. 

This is a move only a team who thinks they are a legitimate super bowl contender should make. If you're a rebuilding team like the Panthers, trading away high round draft capital is suicide unless it's for a future HOF level QB.

With our luck, we'd give up a 1st, a bank breaking contract, and he'd get hurt in game 1 lol. Or have a medicore off year of 7 sacks or something.

Panthers have second highest DL payroll this year, per Over The Cap. Had highest before Broncos paid Zach Allen.

He’s 30, and they’ve avoided older non-specialists this offseason. Would probably need to adjust scheme for more even fronts. But doable on cap with a rework and/or extension.

Thank you

 

IMO, if they are paying big money and giving up a lot of assets, it should be for Parsons 

Got a feeling it’s because the Hendrickson cost is significantly cheaper.

[Waldo]

Just proving if you can't do something good then there is always something stupid

[Proudiddy]

I obviously would be excited to add such a proven, productive player, but it just doesn’t make sense for where we are.

Same here, do I want it to happen, heck yeah…do we need it now? Probably not.

Probably so, but sheesh, being 31 and paying him all that is wild to me. This team isn’t to that point yet

[LinvilleGorge]

Please no. The last thing this organization needs right now is big money players on the wrong side of 30.
