All the pieces is larger in Texas and that features some outlandish trade rumors.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Friday he offered the Jets former star defensive end Micah Parsons and a first-round pick for Quinnen Williams during training camp.
“A one and Parsons for Williams,” Jones said on 105.3 The Fan. “I assumed that much of Williams.”
This appears to be a little bit of an exaggeration, though, for a myriad of reasons, namely that he claimed the alternative earlier this yr in an interview with ESPN Radio.
Jones previously said that he wanted to amass Williams and picks from the Jets for Parsons, a deal that makes way more sense than the reverse.
For starters, the Cowboys only needed one first-round pick to land Williams. The concept Williams would have needed Parsons and a first-rounder before the season seems a bit much.
Parsons also fetched the Cowboys two first-round picks plus Kenny Clark, which is way more according to a return for a star — even when some questioned it — than giving up a pick and Parsons for a player.
Jones claimed Friday morning that the Jets deal — no matter which version could have actually been discussed — didn’t come to fruition since they didn’t have the cap room to pay Parsons.
The polarizing owner eventually got his man on the trade deadline and Williams has helped lead a midseason revival for a team that when seemed dead to rights.

Dallas is 6-5-1 after its third straight win Thursday — all with Williams — a 31-28 win over the reigning AFC champion Chiefs on the heels of a 21-point rally to down the Eagles the previous week.
The Cowboys sit in ninth within the NFC.
Williams had 4 tackles, including one stuff, in Thursday’s win.
Said Jones: “He’s showing you what he can do for a defense.”
