Wtf?

I’m sure they wanted the picks too. I’m absolutely not doing that trade even if parsons is healthy

Packers LB Micah Parsons has been dealing with an L4/L5 facet joint sprain in his back and he may take an epidural injection prior to Sunday’s game vs. the Lions if needed to help him play, per sources.

Before trading Parsons last week, the Cowboys prescribed him a five-day plan of an anti-Inflammatory corticosteroid, a prednisone to help him recover from back tightness. They also had him on a physical therapy program.
 
Parsons has been practicing this week and he is trying to play in Sunday’s opener vs. the Lions, though one source said it still is uncertain if he will.

And now you know the rest of the story. Lol.

Sorry. Maybe im unrealistic. But I dont make guys with injuries my luxury people. Too high risk. All players deal with some injuries, but for top dollar at a position? On anything other than a 1-2 year deal? No way. Im more cautious than most though, as evidenced by my continued (and annoying i know) griping about our 2nd round RB thats injured.

That’s a good decision. I think Brown will have a bigger impact than Parsons. Without Brown, Parsons would have been a JAG, and an injured one at that. Backs don’t usually get better in this game. He may go to Green Bay and be great, or he could fade into injury obscurity.

How much of his salary is guaranteed?

Playing home games in the cold of green bay vs Dallas in a dome may not be the best for back issue either

44m signing bonus, 120m at signing and 136 in total possible guarantees. 

His contract is basically 47m APY with  34m GPY. Contract starts next year.

For multiple 1st and a player it's not unrealistic at all. The talking heads love this because it's something to talk about before the season starts, Dallas had to move him because of Jones and I have no idea how GB justifies this if/when his health worsens. It's a gamble for sure but it's also not guaranteed on a 4th year guy and his injury history that it'sa lock to be a huge issue mov8ng forwar. I get that in the NFL injuries are just a matter of time but even not being as easy as a knee injury on a 300+ pounder it's still risky IMO. Whoever signed off on this is absolutely playing risk vs reward and it should be fun to watch play out since it won't really affect the Panthers.

I would have been pissed if they used that ammo to bring in a hurt/tweaked Parsons...especially with our D situation.
