Micah Parsons' dad once named Chiefs, Steelers, Lions as preferred trade destinations
During an appearance on the "Life in the Stands" podcast in December 2024, Parsons' dad stated that his preferred trade landing spots for the superstar edge rusher are the Kansas City Chiefs, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Detroit Lions.
"I know Pittsburgh fans are like, 'whoa,' but I'm sorry, him [Micah Parsons] and [T.J.] Watt together would be like cheating," Terrence Parsons said. "Him and [Aidan] Hutchinson together in Detroit would be like cheating. I love it. Kansas City, that's who they are right now."
Parsons requested a trade out of Dallas due to the franchise's lack of communication with his agent. The 26-year-old's relationship with the Cowboys and owner Jerry Jones seems to be completely destroyed.
Dallas has no plans of trading Parsons, but if they can't agree on a long-term extension with him, they may be forced to move him at some point.
Parsons' father's landing spots for the four-time Pro Bowl edge rusher are bold. Adding Parsons to Kansas City's defense would be lethal, while pairing the disgruntled Cowboy with Watt or Hutchinson in Detroit would also be pretty much unstoppable.
However, none of the teams Parsons' dad listed as preferred spots have the money to sign Parsons to a record-breaking extension. The Chiefs are slated to have negative $61 million in cap space next offseason, and the Steelers already have two expensive edge rushers in Watt and Alex Highsmith.
As for the Lions, the team must prioritize getting an extension done with Hutchinson first, which likely takes them out of the running for Parsons.
It's possible that Parsons lands with one of three destinations his dad spoke about during a podcast appearance last year, as all three franchises are playoff contenders, and two are legitimate Super Bowl contenders in Kansas City and Detroit.
However, it remains to be seen whether any have the money to sign Parsons to a new deal after trading valuable picks for him while also keeping their core together.

Fantasy Football Mock Draft, No. 3 Pick: Full list of picks, analysis and key takeaways
Welcome to the third installment of my 12-part mock draft series, where I'm drafting from every spot — 1 through 12 — in a standard 12-team Yahoo league to break down how draft strategies evolve based on pick position. As always, I used the Yahoo Fantasy Instant Mock Draft tool and drafted solo. The format is half-PPR, with the following roster construction: QB, 2 RBs, 2 WRs, TE, FLEX, K, D/ST, and six bench spots. In this edition, I drafted from the No. 3 overall slot and entered with the intention of building off Scott Pianowski's strategy that emphasizes targeting stars from six high-powered NFL offenses. After trying both a WR-heavy build (Pick 1.01) and an RB-centric strategy (Pick 1.02), I wanted to see what would happen if I balanced both early. I took some reaches, but remember, it's part of the process of feeling out the board. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] Fantasy Football Mock Draft: Pick No. 3 Full Roster QB: Dak Prescott (DAL)RB: Chase Brown (CIN)RB: Tony Pollard (TEN)WR: Ja'Marr Chase (CIN)WR: Ladd McConkey (LAC)TE: Kyle Pitts Sr. (ATL)FLEX: Kenneth Walker III (SEA)K: Harrison Butker (KC)D/ST: Baltimore RavensBench: WR Tetairoa McMillan (CAR)Bench: WR Zay Flowers (BAL)Bench: RB Jordan Mason (MIN)Bench: WR Cooper Kupp (SEA)Bench: RB Tank Bigsby (JAX)Bench: QB Anthony Richardson Sr. (IND) Rounds 1–3: All-in on the Bengals 1.03 – Ja'Marr Chase (CIN – WR)2.10 – Chase Brown (CIN – RB)3.03 – Ladd McConkey (LAC – WR) Roster assessment following Round 3 If Chase is available beyond the first pick, I'm taking him. Zero hesitation grabbing a high-volume WR tethered to Joe Burrow and the Bengals offense, one I wanted major exposure to, and I doubled down in Round 2 with Chase Brown. When Round 3 came around, Malik Nabers and Drake London were both on the board, but I pivoted to Ladd McConkey — also something I wouldn't do in a real draft. Still, I'm sticking to the script and the Chargers are one of the six teams to target, per Scott Pianowski. [Subscribe to Yahoo Fantasy Plus and unlock Instant Mock Drafts today] Rounds 4–6: Build depth at RB 4.10 – Tony Pollard (TEN – RB)5.03 – Kenneth Walker III (SEA – RB)6.10 – Tetairoa McMillan (CAR – WR) Roster assessment following Round 6 As positional runs on WR and TE started forming, I leaned into value and team fit by grabbing Tony Pollard in Round 4. I like volume and Pollard was ninth in the NFL in touches last season. My Kenneth Walker III exposure can't be denied, as he's been a staple of securing a deep backfield. Even with Zach Charbonnet behind him, Walker remains Seattle's top option and explosive playmaker. To complement the RB stack, I took a risk on rookie Tet McMillan in Round 6 — a lesser-known commodity relative to other vets going in this range. He could become Bryce Young's go-to target and could evolve into a WR2/3 with upside. Rounds 7–10: Positional Balance and QB/TE Investment 7.03 – Zay Flowers (BAL – WR)8.10 – Dak Prescott (DAL – QB)9.03 – Kyle Pitts Sr. (ATL – TE)10.10 – Jordan Mason (MIN – RB) Roster assessment following Round 10 Surprise, I got Zay Flowers. With three solid RBs already locked in, I used the next two rounds to fill out my QB and TE spots. Welcome, Dak. The Cowboys made Scott's list, so getting Prescott at this spot is timely. I don't mind getting him in the eighth round since he's due for a bounce-back campaign. I'm lukewarm on Kyle Pitts Sr. However, Darnell Mooney is hurt and the early camp buzz is that Pitts and Michael Penix Jr. are vibing. I understand if he's dead to you, but he's talented and comes at an affordable price. Finally, I picked up one of my favorite backups in Jordan Mason. Rounds 11–15: Value mixed with fliers 11.03 – Cooper Kupp (SEA – WR)12.10 – Tank Bigsby (JAX – RB)13.03 – Baltimore (BAL – DEF)14.10 – Harrison Butker (KC – K)15.03 – Anthony Richardson Sr. (IND – QB) Roster assessment following Round 15 Even if Kupp is somewhat washed, the cost is cheap. Despite the injuries, Kupp still averaged 11 FPPG last year — not bad for a bench piece. Tank Bigsby gave me more RB insurance with touchdown potential and upside if Travis Etienne Jr. falls flat. Lastly, I grabbed Anthony Richardson Sr. in Round 15, a dual-threat quarterback who could explode if he stays healthy. Worst case, I drop him. Best case, he or Dak become tradeable assets to a squad struggling with stability at QB. Key Takeaways I was deliberate about building around six offenses — Bengals, Chargers, Titans, Cowboys, Cardinals and Dolphins. I drafted players from four of those teams, shaping this roster into one of my most balanced so far. I've noticed that at least six or seven RBs are continually getting drafted in the first round. That RB scarcity can get real, so I've made a note to grab at least one in my first three picks. I waited on QB and I got in at the right time because eight QBs were selected across Round 8 and 9 (I got Dak at the end of the 8th round). One of these times, I'll commit to a TE earlier because the pool beyond Round 8 is rough. That's an area I need to work on going forward. My wideouts are ok, not great but more than manageable given my depth at other positions.

Snap Inc. (SNAP) Nosedives 17% on Wider Net Loss
We recently published . Snap Inc. (NYSE:SNAP) is one of the worst-performing stocks on Wednesday. Shares of Snap fell by 17.15 percent on Wednesday to close at $7.78 apiece, as investor sentiment was dampened by a higher net loss in the second quarter of the year. In its updated report, Snap Inc. (NYSE:SNAP) said net loss widened by 6 percent to $262 million from $248.6 million in the same period last year. Revenues grew by 9 percent to $1.345 billion from $1.236 billion year-on-year. Despite the dismal quarter, the company narrowed its net loss by 27 percent in the first half of the year to $402 million from $553.7 million in the same period last year. Revenues increased by 11 percent to $2.7 billion from $2.4 billion. Following the results, Snap Inc. (NYSE:SNAP) earned a lower price target of $10 from RBC Capital, as compared with the $12 previously. Still, the new figure marks a 28-percent upside from its latest closing price. RBC Capital described the second quarter as a 'tough Q2' for Snap Inc. (NYSE:SNAP), with planned ad platform development and surface expansion efforts not going according to plan. Additionally, RBC Capital said that the underperformance would 'continue to reinforce the bear case that SNAP cannot break out of being a smaller ad platform lacking the ability to durably grow its direct response business in-line with the market.' While we acknowledge the potential of SNAP as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

HOME PRICE GROWTH IN OPPORTUNITY ZONES SLIGHTLY BEHIND REST OF NATION IN SECOND QUARTER
Price Gains Inside Opportunity Zones Targeted for Economic Redevelopment Edged Up This Spring but Trailed the Broader U.S. Housing Market IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ATTOM, a leading curator of land, property data, and real estate analytics, today released its second-quarter 2025 report analyzing qualified low-income Opportunity Zones targeted by Congress for economic redevelopment in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (see full methodology below). In this report, ATTOM looked at 3,838 zones around the United States with sufficient data to analyze, meaning they had at least five home sales in the second quarter of 2025. The report found that median single-family home and condo prices increased from the first to the second quarter of 2025 in 57 percent of Opportunity Zones around the country with enough data to measure. About half of Opportunity Zone census tracts, 50.5 percent, saw median home values rise compared to the same time last year. That was a smaller share than the rest of the country: Home values rose in 56 percent of census tracts outside of Opportunity Zones. Shop Top Mortgage Rates Your Path to Homeownership A quicker path to financial freedom Personalized rates in minutes As the country as a whole saw record-high home prices in the second quarter of 2025, about 8.4 percent of Opportunity Zones experienced their highest median prices since at least 2008. And 39 percent of Opportunity Zones with sufficient data to analyze saw median property values rise by 10 percent or more annually. However, price growth was slowest in Opportunity Zones that had the lowest median home sales prices while prices rose in similar shares of Opportunity Zone census tracts in the mid- and high-priced zones. "Home values in most Opportunity Zones continue to move in step with the broader market—a pattern we've tracked since we began studying this segment," said Rob Barber, CEO of ATTOM. "Drill down, though, and volatility persists, especially in the lowest-priced neighborhoods. Limited inventory nationwide is still driving prices higher and nudging marginal buyers toward areas with deeper economic challenges." Barber added, "Even with that upward pressure, a significant share of Opportunity Zone markets are trailing the nation in year-over-year price gains, reminding us that the recovery remains uneven and that some communities have a longer road ahead." Opportunity Zones are defined in the Tax Act legislation as census tracts in or alongside low-income neighborhoods that meet various criteria for redevelopment in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. territories. Census tracts, as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau, cover areas that have 1,200 to 8,000 residents, with an average of about 4,000 people. While the gap between census tracts in and outside of Opportunity zones is relatively modest when it comes to how likely they were to experience price growth in the second quarter of 2025, the actual sticker prices of homes in these areas still tends to be much lower. In the second quarter, 79.9 percent of Opportunity Zone census tracts posted median home prices below the national median of $369,000. About half of Opportunity Zone census tracts (49.6 percent) had median home prices under $225,000. Considerable price volatility also continued inside Opportunity Zones. The median home price rose or fell by more than 5 percent year-over-year in 73 percent of the Opportunity Zone census tracts in ATTOM's analysis. That likely reflected small numbers of sales in many zones. Major findings from the report: Median prices of single-family homes and condos rose from the first to the second quarter of 2025 in 57.3 percent (1,813) of the 3,162 Opportunity Zone census tracts with sufficient data to analyze in both quarters. Year-over-year, median values rose in 50.5 percent (1,938) of the 3,432 Opportunity Zone census tracts with sufficient data. Home prices rose annually in a smaller share (50.5 percent) of Opportunity Zone census tracts compared to the 56 percent of tracts located outside the zones that saw median prices increase. A larger share of Opportunity Zones tracts saw median prices grow by 10 percent or more annually: 39 percent of tracts inside the zones compared to 32 percent of tracts outside the zones. The areas with the lowest home values saw the most sluggish growth, with only 39 percent (289) of the 742 Opportunity Zone census tracts where median sales prices were below $125,000 seeing any increase in prices year-over-year. The Midwest saw the strongest growth among its Opportunity Zones. Among states with at least 25 Opportunity Zones that had sufficient data to analyze in the second quarter of 2025, Wisconsin had the highest share where median home prices grew year-over-year (medians up from the second quarter of 2024 to the second quarter of 2025 in 68 percent of zones), followed by Indiana (65 percent), Iowa (65 percent), Michigan (64 percent), and Missouri (59 percent). Home prices in most Opportunity Zones are well below those outside of them. About half of Opportunity Zone census tracts had median home prices below $225,000 in the second quarter of 2025 while the national median home price was $369,000. The majority (54 percent) of Midwestern Opportunity Zone census tracts had median home prices below $175,000, compared to the Northeast (38 percent), the South (36 percent), and the West (6 percent). Report methodologyThe ATTOM Opportunity Zones analysis is based on home sales price data derived from recorded sales deeds. Statistics for previous quarters are revised when each new report is issued as more deed data becomes available. ATTOM's analysis compared median home prices in census tracts designated as Opportunity Zones by the Internal Revenue Service. Except where noted, tracts were used for the analysis if they had at least five sales in the second quarter of 2025. Median household income data for tracts and counties comes from surveys taken by the U.S. Census Bureau ( from 2019 through 2023. The list of designated Qualified Opportunity Zones is located at U.S. Department of the Treasury. Regions are based on designations by the Census Bureau. Hawaii and Alaska, which the bureau designates as part of the Pacific region, were included in the West region for this report.
