Lions could pull off league-altering trade with Cowboys for Micah Parsons
The Detroit Lions are in desperate need of pass-rushing help, and the team could orchestrate a league-altering trade with the Dallas Cowboys for All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons. For The Win's Charles Curtis lists the Lions as one of the top six landing spots for Parsons, who could force his way out of Dallas soon. "The Super Bowl window is open in Motor City. Aidan Hutchinson is coming back from that horrible injury, so why not add another body to rush the QB?" Curtis wrote. The Athletic's Dianna Russini reported on Friday that Parsons and the Cowboys are still far apart on an extension, and it has gotten to a point where the superstar pass rusher is considering requesting a trade or cutting ties with the organization. "The Micah Parsons-Cowboys relationship has deteriorated to the point where the star pass rusher is considering drastic measures which could include a trade request or even a declaration that he is severing his relationship with the team, per multiple league sources familiar with the situation," Russini wrote. "The two sides remain far apart heading into the second week of training camp, and are not currently negotiating." It's shocking that the Cowboys aren't willing to pay Parsons his desired contract. Since entering the league in 2021, the 26-year-old has tallied four straight double-digit sack campaigns and has earned four Pro Bowl selections and two first-team All-Pro nods. If Dallas decides to trade away Parsons, Detroit would be a logical landing spot. Pairing Aidan Hutchinson with Parsons on the Lions' defensive line would be lethal, and the move would elevate the Lions into the clear favorites in the NFC North and possibly the entire conference. Trading for the Penn State product and giving him a lucrative extension will be challenging, especially with Hutchinson also seeking a long-term deal. However, general manager Brad Holmes would be foolish not to look into a trade for Parsons, as the 2021 No.12 overall pick is a generational talent, and those types of players don't come on the trade market often. It still seems unlikely that Parsons won't be with the Cowboys for the foreseeable future, but with how the relationship looks between both sides right now, the chances of him leaving Dallas have skyrocketed.

Adam Schefter says Terry McLaurin wants more money than Steelers' DK Metcalf
Star WR Terry McLaurin set off a speculation firestorm with his trade request on Thursday — but there may now be a clearer idea of his desired contract amount, one that surpasses Steelers WR DK Metcalf. On a recent episode of The Pat McAfee Show, ESPN's Adam Schefter shared some insight on McLaurin's contract talks with the Commanders — comparing Metcalf's historic deal with the Steelers as the bar he's looking to surpass. "It's up to the two sides to figure out a way to bridge their differences," Schefter said. "But I would say that DK Metcalf was the same draft class as Terry McLaurin, he got about $33 million per year. I wouldn't think that Terry is going to take less than that — and I think he wants considerably more than that." Consider the high price tag and premium draft capital needed to acquire him, a potential Steelers trade for McLaurin may not be in the cards — despite still being considered one of the betting favorites to land the star wide receiver. Metcalf's extension wasn't the only trend-setting move made by Pittsburgh — as the Steelers made T.J. Watt the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL a few weeks ago, potentially making it difficult for the rest of the league to pay their edge rushers.

Chargers acquire Micah Parsons in proposed deal that sends Cowboys Najee Harris
Dallas Cowboys star linebacker Micah Parsons has not only requested a trade out of Dallas but also issued a statement saying he no longer wants to play there. Parsons is looking for an extension that his play on the field has shown he deserves, but Jerry Jones and the Cowboys have yet to grant his request. Now, they could decide to trade him instead. While many landing spots and trade possibilities have been discussed since the news of his trade request broke, Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report has come up with a deal that sends Parsons to the Los Angeles Chargers. Here are the details of his proposed deal: Chargers receive: Micah Parsons, 2027 4th-round pickCowboys receive: 2026 1st-round pick, 2026 2nd-round pick, 2027 1st-round pick, 2027 5th-round pick, Najee Harris This would be a lot to give up for the Chargers, but Parsons, one of the best defensive players in the league, commands this price. The Chargers would then need to sign him to a contract extension as his deal expires at the end of this season. "The Los Angeles Chargers, presumably, are looking to continue trending upward under new head coach Jim Harbaugh. L.A. saw a six-win improvement last season while fielding the league's No. 1 scoring defense. This offseason, Los Angeles bolstered its offense by adding players like Najee Harris, Omarion Hampton and Tre Harris. Hampton, a first-round running back out of North Carolina, is expected to lead Los Angeles' rushing attack. That doesn't necessarily make Harris expendable. The former Pittsburgh Steelers standout still has "no timeline" for returning from an eye injury either, according to The Athletic's Daniel Popper. However, including Harris might be an acceptable sweetener for a Cowboys team hoping it can find a viable starting back between Javonte Williams, Miles Sanders, Deuce Vaughn and rookie fifth-round pick Jaydon Blue", wrote Knox. Overall, it would be a move unlike any we've ever seen the Chargers make, but Jim Harbaugh, knowing that his team is a contender and has the money to lock up Parsons for the rest of the prime of his career, could help entice the front office to take a chance. READ:Would Keenan Allen even want to come back to the Chargers? The Cowboys would also get Najee Harris in the deal. Harris has yet to do much of anything in L.A. since signing as a free agent this summer. An eye injury suffered during a fireworks incident on the Fourth of July has kept him off the practice field in training camp. The Cowboys are not going to want to move Parsons, and most of this is just posturing from the player and the front office to get what they want. It's happened in Dallas for decades with Jerry Jones in charge. But if the two sides can't come to an agreement and Parsons really does want out of Dallas, at just 26 years old, the Chargers could shake up the entire season by making a move to land him.
