Belt believes the Bears would make this pretend deal, even if this proposal is unlikely to ever happen. The Cowboys insider added that Dallas would likely be resistant to the deal.

“We threw out the question of Chicago has the first and the ninth pick in the draft this year, I believe,” Belt explained. “…Shan Shariff, who we co-host with [on 105.3 The Fan] was in strong disagreement with myself and Kevin Hageland. We both said that if Dallas offered Chicago Micah Parsons for the No. 1 pick, just the No. 1 pick, we think that Chicago says yes and Dallas doesn’t do that.

“I think Chicago says, ‘I get Micah Parsons [a] guaranteed star and I still have the ninth pick, I’ll take that.’ I don’t think they give up both [top-ten picks], but I think Chicago would absolutely say, ‘Yeah sure, you can have the No. 1 pick for Michael Parsons.’”
