Giants' perfect Micah Parsons trade proposal to Cowboys
The post Giants' perfect Micah Parsons trade proposal to Cowboys appeared first on ClutchPoints. Since his blockbuster entry into the NFL, Micah Parsons has quickly established himself as a generational defensive talent, an electrifying pass rusher, versatile linebacker, and game-changer for the Dallas Cowboys. However, in the summer of 2025, a profound rift has developed between Parsons and the Cowboys front office that has shaken the foundation of the franchise. The catalyst? A contract dispute stemming from Parsons' desire for a lucrative long-term extension, which the Cowboys have resisted leading to ongoing stalemates. Cowboys' Micah Parsons Frustration is the Giants' gain Parsons has publicly expressed his frustrations with the team's negotiation process, particularly the Cowboys' insistence on not dealing with his agent directly and their perceived lack of transparency and respect. These issues culminated in Parsons issuing a public trade request in early August 2025, shocking fans and analysts nationwide. He explicitly stated on social media that while he initially wanted to be a Cowboy for the long haul, he no longer wishes to be part of the organization due to the ongoing behind-the-scenes conflicts and negative narratives surrounding him. His trade request also reflects his belief that the Cowboys did not adequately honor or acknowledge his commitment and impact over his first four dazzling seasons, which include multiple Pro Bowl selections and a dominant presence that has redefined their defense. Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and his management have remained firm, expressing reluctance to rush into a contract that could potentially undervalue the team's position or set precarious precedents. Jones openly stated he wants to get the best possible value for Dallas, noting that he has seen the pitfalls of premature contract renegotiations and that the situation remains a negotiation at this stage without any final resolutions. Despite players and fans showing vocal support for Parsons, the Cowboys have made it clear that they do not intend to trade him lightly, if at all. This unresolved standoff creates a fascinating but complicated landscape for both sides as the 2025 season approaches. From the New York Giants' perspective, this developing saga presents a unique opportunity to acquire a proven elite talent who could immediately transform their defense and provide a long-term cornerstone. The Giants, under pressure to build a championship-caliber roster with explosive weapons on both sides of the ball, would do well to capitalize on this tension and propose a trade package that maximizes the Cowboys' valuation of Parsons' rare skill set without mortgaging the team's future excessively. Giants' Perfect Micah Parsons Trade Proposal to Cowboys Giants Receive: Edge/LB Micah Parsons Cowboys Receive: Giants' 2026 First-Round Draft Pick Giants' 2027 First-Round Pick Giants' 2026 Third-Round Draft Pick Giants' 2026 Third-Round Draft Pick This proposal leverages future draft capital, which holds significant value for the Cowboys' rebuilding timeline and player contract flexibility. It respects the Cowboys' reluctance to trade Parsons without adequate compensation reflecting his elite status but avoids surrendering any current starters or immediate contributors from the Giants' young roster. By focusing solely on draft picks, the Giants provide the Cowboys with valuable assets that can be used to restock their roster, build around emerging talent, and maintain cap space. The inclusion of multiple picks signals seriousness while maintaining the Giants' long-term competitiveness. Parsons' potential impact as a franchise defender is undeniable. His explosive speed, relentless pass-rushing ability, and coverage skills make him a rare hybrid linebacker who can disrupt opposing offenses in various ways. For the Giants, acquiring Parsons would instantly upgrade their defense and send a clear message that they are committed to winning now while also planning for the future. His leadership and charisma would resonate well in a locker room hungry for a star presence, and his contract situation could be resolved fresh with the Giants' negotiations, unburdened by the friction that plagued his Dallas tenure. The Micah Parsons-Cowboys dispute has become one of the NFL's most compelling and complex saga entering the 2025 season. A package anchored by multiple early and mid-round 2026-2027 draft picks represents the ideal balance, offering the Cowboys tangible, future-building currency while ensuring the Giants obtain one of the league's premier defensive talents to elevate their roster for years to come. The stakes are high on both sides, but a trade structured as proposed could provide a win-win pathway forward amid the uncertainty. This negotiation will be watched closely, as the league's defensive stalwart and the Cowboys' star figure look set to begin a new chapter, potentially in Big Blue.

Russian superyacht, with helideck and marble fireplace, was seized. Now you can bid on it
The Russian oligarch billionaire lifestyle can be yours for the potentially low, low price of tens of millions of dollars, courtesy of the U.S. federal government. The National Maritime Services, working on behalf of the U.S. Marshals Service, is auctioning off a superyacht, the $300-million-plus Amadea, which currently sits in a San Diego harbor, with a bid deposit starting at $10 million. Florida-based Fraser Yachts, the auction's promotional agents, described the prize 'as one of the most comprehensively equipped yachts in her class.' The 348-foot-long ship was built in 2017 and can comfortably host 16 guests in eight luxurious staterooms. An additional 21 cabins can house a professional crew of up to 36 workers. One of the ship's jewels is a glass elevator that serves all decks, while a second lift is available for crew. The yacht includes a glass-edged mosaic pool with submerged bar stools, and an outdoor bar area surrounded by sun pads (cushioned areas for perfecting your tan). The ship's main salon showcases a piano and marble fireplace. The yacht was designed by Espen Øino, the acclaimed Norwegian designer and naval architect, while its decadent interiors were created by designer François Zuretti. The ship has an ocean-crossing range of 8,000 nautical miles at a speed of 13 knots. For late-arriving quests, the Amadea also boasts a helideck. The U.S. Justice Department maintained in a 2023 civil forfeiture complaint that Russian oligarch Suleiman Kerimov was the ship's owner. Kerimov took possession of the vessel sometime around 2021, though his transactions were cloaked through shell companies, according to the complaint. Kerimov was sanctioned by the U.S. in 2018 and labeled a Specially Designated National for his alleged role in money laundering related to the purchase of French villas. The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control determined Kerimov was a direct beneficiary of Russian President Vladimir Putin and 'played a key role in advancing Russia's malign activities,' which includes the invasion of Ukraine. The U.S. has said it's working with allies to put pressure on Russian oligarchs, some of whom are close to Putin and have had their yachts seized, to try to compel him to stop the war, the Associated Press reports. The Amadea was seized in Fiji in April 2022 and arrived in San Diego in June that year. The Southern District of New York ruled in March that the Amadea was to be forfeited to the federal government. That decision is being appealed by the man who claims to own the sumptuous vessel — Eduard Khudainatov, the non-sanctioned former chairman of Russian state-controlled oil giant Rosneft, according to the Associated Press. U.S. prosecutors maintain that Khudainatov is a straw owner of the yacht. On July 1, the Marshals Service authorized Fraser Yachts as the promotional agent for the sealed bid auction. The auction is being conducted in U.S. dollars and is running until 11 a.m. on Sept. 10 at The initial deposit necessary to make a bid is $10 million. All bids will remain sealed with the highest bidder winning the yacht. Should multiple participants tie with the top price, each bidder will be given a chance to increase their offering until a winner is determined.

Is Micah Parsons serious about wanting a trade?
Six days ago, Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons posted a public trade request. The next day, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones called BS on it being a real request. As we close in on the one-week anniversary of the making of the request, is it real? Although Jones shrugged at the trade request, Bobby Belt of 105.3 The Fan recently said that "a lot of people around the Cowboys" believe it's not a bluff. "I don't think it's lost, but it's in need of repair," Belt said regarding Parsons's relationship with the team. "The way things are currently, they want out. The Cowboys have to be the ones to extend the olive branch and say, 'Hey, we'll fix this.'" Belt said he spoke to agent David Mulugheta, who first raised with the team a desire to do a new deal for Parsons after the 2023 season. The Cowboys wanted to wait. Eighteen months later, they're still waiting. In the interim, of course, Jones came to the conclusion that a handshake deal was done. Parsons disagrees. Regardless, the two sides need to talk or nothing will get done. Which brings us back to the question of whether the Cowboys hope to kick the can until 2026, and to pay Parsons only $24 million in 2025. If that's what Jones wants to do, it makes sense to not be talking.
