The Tennessee Titans have agreed to trade suspended cornerback Pacman Jones to the Dallas Cowboys for a conditional fourth-round pick, which could go back to the Cowboys if Pacman does not play this season. An NFL.com wire report said the Titans confirmed the deal, but added that terms had to be finalized. Pacman must also pass a physical before the trade can be completed.
Dallas’ interest in acquiring Pacman Jones first surfaced a little over a month ago. When it’s a done deal, the Titans wash their hands of Pacman’s past and the Cowboys take their chances with one of the most talented, yet troubled, players in the National Football League. If Pacman is reinstated prior to training camp (which I am quite certain he will be if he stays out of trouble), he’ll have a tremendous opportunity to resurrect his career as a starting cornerback and kick returner for the Cowboys.
As I’ve said before, I wouldn’t have taken the chance on Pacman. I just wouldn’t bother going there yet. But, when you consider the investment by Dallas (a fourth-round Draft pick), it’s almost a no-brainer. Besides, they know how much baggage Pacman brings with him. They’re comfortable dealing with it. They think the potential reward outweighs the risk. I don’t. In saying that, I sincerely hope Pacman can stay on the straight and narrow path and I hope he has tremendous success in Dallas.
