At this rate, Dallas may have\u00a0no choice but to move on.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\">Buzz has been growing on social media that links Parsons to a Packers trade, as Green Bay is in the market for a pass rusher. The Packers jumping to the front of the line for Parsons may not be as much of a pipe dream as one might have thought a few weeks ago.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"scroll-mt-24 my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\">This Packers-Cowboys trade sends Micah Parsons to Green Bay<\/h2>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\"><strong>Packers get: EDGE Micah Parsons<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\"><strong>Cowboys get: EDGE Rashan Gary, 2026 First Round Pick, 2027 Second Round Pick, 2026 Third Round Pick<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\">The Cowboys aren&#8217;t going to get rid of Parsons without receiving at least one Pro Bowl-type player back in return (preferably on the defensive side of the ball) in addition to\u00a0multiple Top 100 picks in the NFL Draft. The Packers are one of a few teams in the league that have the assets to tempt Dallas.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\">It doesn&#8217;t take a savant of football knowledge to illustrate how a player with Parsons&#8217; pedigree and physical traits playing at the top of his game is going to have a game-changing impact on the Packers&#8217; defense as a whole. That pass rush immediately goes from a weakness to a strength.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\">Dallas, meanwhile, would get a player in Gary that could help mitigate the loss of Parsons while freeing up more playing time for standout rookie Donovan Ezeiruaku. The Cowboys would have more ammo to begin a proper rebuild, as Will McClay could put those picks to good use.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\">The Packers still have multiple hurdles they need to clear if they want to secure Parsons, but they are in a better position than most teams. The longer this goes on, the more likely it is that Green Bay ends up coming to terms with an equitable package for the Cowboys.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NFC Wild Card Playoffs &#8211;
