Packers DE Micah Parsons admits he passed on himself in fantasy draft

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The Green Bay Packers gave up two first-round draft picks plus Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark to trade for Micah Parsons last Thursday.

That was apparently too much for Parsons to give up for himself -- at least when it came to his fantasy football team.

Parsons said Tuesday that he had the first pick in his draft and did not pick himself. While he did not say who he picked in that spot, he said someone else in his league selected him and he did not try to trade up for himself.
