The Dallas Cowboys star linebacker seems to be having quite unfiltered reactions to certain draft picks. After his viral reaction to Tyler Guyton‘s selection by the Cowboys, another clip from the Bleacher Report on air-draft discussion panel has gone viral, where Micah Parsons can be seen having an “utterly disgusted” reaction to a pick by the Eagles.

Using their No. 22 overall pick, the Philadelphia Eagles secured a solid cornerback for their offense as they drafted Toledo QB Quinyon Mitchell. As much as the Eagles were thrilled about it, the Cowboys’ star defender gave the exact opposite reaction.

With the Bleacher Report’s camera right on him, his facial expression changed the moment when host Adam Lefkoe announced the news of Mitchell joining Philly. As it turned out, the young cornerback was among Parsons’ favorite prospects from the Class of 2024.

I’m honestly utterly disgusted on how lucky the Eagles are. I do not know how he fell that far — this run of offensive tackles and quarterbacks, that’s the only thing that makes sense. I thought he was a top 15, top 12 talent. He was one of my more favorite players in this draft. He checked every box. Micah Parsons said

But now, he will have to face Mitchell in the opposite team– Cowboys divisional rivals who are already being considered a contender, where there are a lot of doubts in regards to the Cowboys’ standing as a contender after their poor and inactive offseason.

Eagles GM Howie Roseman’s moves set a high bar for NFC East

This offseason, the Eagles GM Howie Roseman has made many splashy decisions to strengthen his team. From running the star running back Saquon Barkley to solidify their rushing game to having a reliable backup quarterback with the trade-in of Kenny Pickett.

Adding Mitchell while also re-signing C.J. Gardner-Johnson, the Eagles have made its defense daunting for the opposing offense.

On the other hand, Parsons’ team the Cowboys have spent the entire free agency period in silence, missing out on some great additions to the team. Not only did they fail to improve the weak offense, but also lost key players such as Tyler Biadasz, Tony Pollard, and Tyron Smith.
