SKIP BAYLESS lashed out at Micah Parsons after the Dallas Cowboys sensationally traded him to the Green Bay Packers.
Parsons, 26, signed a four-year, $188million deal with the Packers and became the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL.
This brings an end to a long-running saga between Parsons and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.
Bayless, 73, is thrilled with Parsons’ departure and didn’t hold back during an 11-minute rant he recorded on his phone and shared on social media.
The famous sports columnist and noted Dallas fan even predicted Green Bay will regret their decision to sign the NFL star.
Bayless said: “My gut reaction, as you might guess, is good riddance. And good luck Green Bay.
“Because you just overpaid for the overhyped Micah Parsons, who will never be able to live up to that money, especially, where I don’t think he’ll ever be happy living. I have said this for months on end.
“He wrecked games in his rookie year, but the league figured him out. The league caught up. He’s just not consistently impactful.”
Bayless lost faith in Parsons’ ability three years ago following some poor displays.
He added: “For the last three years, he has driven me crazy, leaving me wanting more.
“Especially in that home playoff game — against the Green Bay Packers. Packers, did you not watch the tape? You just bought into the hype. Congratulations. You saw it firsthand.
“Because you saw him ghost his own team. You saw him no-show on the Dallas Cowboys, who had like seven Pro Bowl players to your none, Green Bay.
“Seven-point favorites as the two-seed in a home playoff game, at Jerry World, with Netflix filming Jerry up in the box for this documentary that just dropped on Netflix, and he had the worst stats of his career.
“Four playoff games he’s played for my Dallas Cowboys. He has one sack, that came with 2:19 left in a 31-14 victory over the 8-9 Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The swan song game for 45-year-old Tom Brady.
“That’s all I got from Micah, was one freakin’ sack, in four playoff games. Three no-shows, two against San Francisco [49ers], one against Green Bay.”
Bayless went on to describe Parsons as a “liability” that cost the Cowboys on the field.
He continued: “He’s a liability against the run. Did you see what New Orleans [Saints] did to him last year, early, at Jerry World? Did you see what the Baltimore Ravens did with 274 yards rushing?
“They just ran and ran and ran, at 11 from heaven, as I called him when he was a rookie. I thought maybe we were on the verge of seeing another Lawrence Taylor.
‘Me, me, me guy’
“And then the league figured out, he can’t play the run. He’s too light in the britches. And he’s just a pure speed rusher with no power. He can outquick you, he can outrun you.
“But if you put a massive tackle on him and get up into him, if you chip block him, he wears down quickly.”
Bayless ended his long video by slamming Parsons for his lack of leadership and being a “me, me, me guy”.
He concluded: “I still believe that Jerry Jones offered this kid $190 guaranteed million back in March, in his office, without the agent. And Micah said, ‘No, I gotta have my agent involved’.
“And Jerry not only got mad at Micah, but finally came to his senses. He’s not a good guy. He’s not a team leader. He’s a podcaster.
“He’s a me, me, me guy. He’s not a difference maker in the field or in the locker room. I’m sorry. Good riddance.”
