By Tyler Reed

Would you believe that the Dallas Cowboys are one of the focal points of the NFL offseason once again?
Of course, the most popular franchise in the NFL is a major talking point during the offseason. However, it seems to always be for the wrong reasons.

Last year, the team took all the headlines by waiting until the last moment to extend quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb. This offseason, it is all about the future of Micah Parsons.

During the NFL's annual meetings, Cowboys' new head coach, Brian Schottenheimer, was tasked with answering the question about Parsons' potential contract negotiations.
In typical head coach speech, Schottenheimer said that he believes Parsons will be around for the franchise long-term.
However, the new head coach better get used to these questions, as the Cowboys have never been in a rush to pay their superstars.

Parsons should also be in no rush to agree to an extension. The longer this goes on, the higher the price will be.
But, in true Cowboys fashion, the front office will love to make Parsons the highest-paid defensive player in the NFL. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones loves the limelight, and throwing a few extra million around will only feed into his excitement of making another headline.
