Speculation linking Dallas Cowboys All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons to the Packers continues to gain momentum as the star’s holdout amid stalled contract negotiations seem as far apart as ever.

Parsons, two weeks ago, publicly requested a trade and continues to hold-in during Cowboys training camp while there is a belief that Green Bay is making attempt to pull off a blockbuster trade.

Potential Packers Micah Parsons Blockbuster Trade Package

Parsons, 26, has posted 52.5 sacks through his first four seasons is one of the most dominant players at his position and the kind of difference-maker who could cement Green Bay as a legitimate Super Bowl contenders for years to come.

But, prying Parsons away from the Cowboys wouldn’t come cheap.

“You’d want to hope to trade no more than three good young players for one elite player,” an NFL executive and former general manager told me recently, of what a Parsons trade package might look like.

Given that strategy, it isn’t difficult to envision Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst offering a package of players and picks that looks something like:

Packers Trade: 2026 first-round NFL Draft choice, 2027 first-round draft choice, WR Romeo Doubs, EDGE Lukas Van Ness

Cowboys Trade: Micah Parsons

Trading two first-round picks is likely the starting point for Jerry Jones and the Cowboys, in any Parsons negotiations.

For the Packers, trading Van Ness would be offering a change of scenery for a former first-round draft choice who has yet to live up to expectations, and upgrading the position with a Defensive Player of The Year caliber player. Meanwhile, shipping Doubs to Dallas clears a logjam at wide receiver, while helping the Cowboys round out a balanced receiving corps that would include CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and Doubs, as perhaps the most prolific collection of talent Dak Prescott has had in his career.

Whether Parsons’ trade request is anything more than posturing remains to be seen, but, if the Cowboys open up trade talks, this package could be the kind of trade that nets Green Bay a difference-maker.
