The Dallas Cowboys have been backed into a corner by Micah Parsons.<\/p>\n
Do they honor the superstar defender’s trade request? Or do they pay him a contract bigger than any non-quarterback has ever received?<\/p>\n

If a trade is really in the cards, every team in the NFL would likely have at least a little interest.<\/p>\n
That includes the Green Bay Packers, who The Athletic includes as one of three teams that could make a big offer for Parsons.<\/p>\n

The proposal sends Parsons to Green Bay for WR Romeo Doubs, a 2026 first-round pick and a 2027 second-round pick.<\/p>\n
“The Packers don\u2019t make these types of trades. General manager Brian Gutekunst might dry heave at the thought of giving away his next two first-round picks and a reliable offensive weapon,” writes Matt Schneidman. “However, this situation is different, draft capital, Doubs and the contract Parsons is due be damned. Gutekunst is entering his eighth season as Packers GM having never made a Super Bowl appearance. New team president Ed Policy isn\u2019t extending Gutekunst\u2019s contract (yet), which has two years remaining on it, and doesn\u2019t want him in a contract year. This season could be important for Gutekunst\u2019s long-term future in the job, and what better way to make a statement to your new boss than acquiring a player who could help the Packers return to the game\u2019s biggest stage?<\/p>\n

“Green Bay\u2019s weakest area could very well be its pass rush, which was inconsistent last season. Enter Parsons, a future Hall of Famer if he continues on this trajectory, to solve that problem. Parsons off one edge and Rashan Gary, freed from double teams, off the other? Sounds nice to me, and I\u2019m sure to Gutekunst, too. Jerry Jones would love an extra first-rounder in 2026 and 2027, along with a great No. 3 receiver still on his rookie contract in the sure-handed Doubs to slot behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens.”<\/p>\n

If they hadn’t already traded for George Pickens, maybe this would be more alluring.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n The pair of first-round picks would probably be late in the round given the Packers have an on-the-rise QB in Jordan Love and then would have Parsons, too.<\/p>\n It also seems a bit scarier for Dallas to deal Parsons in the NFC.<\/p>\n But for Packers fans, the idea of Parsons in the green and yellow must be intriguing.<\/p>\n MORE NFL NEWS:<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This could work for everyone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":73180,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[215,87,54,2781,306,2448,19,2782,20,118,9,121,467,2783,2780],"class_list":["post-73179","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl","tag-brian-gutekunst","tag-ceedee-lamb","tag-dallas-cowboys","tag-enter-parsons","tag-george-pickens","tag-green-bay","tag-green-bay-packers","tag-gutekunst","tag-jordan-love","tag-micah-parsons","tag-nfl","tag-rashan-gary","tag-romeo-doubs","tag-shilo-sanders","tag-trade-request"],"yoast_head":"\n
