he Dallas Cowboys have very pressing concerns in attempting to retain Dak Prescott, Micah Parsons and CeeDee Lamb. Prescott and Lamb are both heading into the final season of their deals, but Parsons is also moving towards a lucrative new contract.
Former Cowboys scout Bryan Broaddus believes the front office may explore a blockbuster trade for Parsons if Prescott does not take less money. The longtime NFL scout explained that Dallas would not only save money but net significant draft capital by moving the star defender.
“[Prescott] could offer them a solution to try and get things done [by taking less money],” Broaddus explained during a July 19, 2024, episode of “Love of the Star” podcast. “If they don’t do that, I see Micah Parsons being potentially traded from this organization.
“… I believe where there’s smoke, there’s fire, and I think there’s a lot of smoke about Micah Parsons right now. Even though his contract is the furthest away from having to deal with it. There’s tags and things like that you can use. My gut feeling is he might fetch the most draft capital of the three players [via trade], if that makes sense.”
Parsons is heading into the final season of a four-year, $17 million rookie contract. The Cowboys have already picked up Parsons’ fifth-year option for 2025.
This keeps Parsons under contract for at least another two seasons, and Dallas has the franchise tag to potentially use on the star in 2027. The challenge is Parsons is going to eventually need to get paid. Bleacher Report’s Maurice Moton projected that Parsons will earn a five-year, $200 million contract, with $130 million in guaranteed money, on his next deal.
“If he wins 2024 Defensive Player of the Year, the Dallas Cowboys will likely have to sign off on a record-setting deal to satisfy his contract demands,” Moton wrote in a July 16, article titled, “Projecting Contracts for NFL Players Who Could Reset Major Position Markets in 2025.”
“… On top of that, Parsons has the versatility to impact the game in different ways as an edge-rusher and off-ball linebacker. Parsons isn’t worried about a contract extension because he knows that his big payday will come soon.”
