Howard Eskin: 'I do not want Micah Parsons'

Howard Eskin says he does NOT want Micah Parsons on the Philadelphia Eagles.

"I don't want him at all. He's an ego, all-about-me player...He's a great player, how does that help Dallas?

"I don't want Micah Parsons. He might be a really good player, but I think it's all about him."

Joe Giglio asked Eskin if he would take Parsons for pick No. 22 in this year's draft and next year's first round pick.

"Absolutely not," Eskin said emphatically.

Parsons is reportedly wearing "thin" in Dallas and speculation is mounting that the star pass rusher could be traded.

Parsons, a Harrisburg, PA native, is a two-time first-team All-Pro, three-time Pro Bowler and finished top-3 in DPOY voting three times.

Parsons, who was a star at Penn State University, has often reacted to some of the Eagles' big acquisitions and draft picks on social media, but has also explained why he did not want to get drafted by the Eagles.

The Eagles added former Penn State star running back Saquon Barkley this offseason, signing the free-agent a three-year deal worth up to $47.75 million.

Furthermore, Philadelphia traded their own star pass rusher to the New York Jets in Haason Reddick for a 2026 second or third round pick. The Cowboys were reportedly interested in Reddick.

The Eagles have the fourth most cap space in the NFL, as well, according to Spotrac with $32 million . The Cowboys have just $6 million in cap space, eighth least in the NFL.

Parsons, 24, is on his rookie contract due just $2.989 million this season. He has a club exercised option for 2025 worth $21.3 million and then will become a free-agent.

Parsons has 13.0, 13.5, and 14.0 sacks, respectively, in his first three NFL seasons.
