Matt Jones lock for the cowboys?

[DaBoys4Life]

Aight so i remember Matt Jones coming to dallas talk a couple of weeks ago and know i think he's a lock now I list what he has going for him and you guess can decide.

He has a rare blend of size and speed.
He is a graduate of Arkansas
He was arrested for coke.
He could be had for cheap.

Not after he just got arrested for felony drug charges. Remember, teams get fined if they sign a troubled player now. I don't think we will be the first team to do this.

Funny aint it... yet another rule set in motion because of the Cowboys.

The "Sign a felon, pay a fine" rule


How many Cowboys-created rules does that make now 7?

All eccentric and troubled end up in Dallas. They find prosperity and they turn over a new leaf for the good. Meanwhile the older brother syndrome gets pouty, refuses to enjoy the fatted calf, and the super bowl ring.

Are there people who seriously look at every NFL player that commits a crime and says "He's coming to Dallas"??

 

[DaBoys4Life]

He is going to go on the Michael Irvin show and after that he will be a show in.

ProFootballTalk.com is already speculating about it:

MATT “AND COKE” JONES?

Posted by Mike Florio on July 10, 2008, 10:59 a.m.

When we saw that Jags receiver Matt Jones had been busted for possession of a controlled substance, we assumed that it was marijuana. Especially since the guy is so, you know, mellow.

As it turns out, Jones (allegedly) had cocaine.
While making the arrest, police had to draw their guns on Jones, who didn’t comply with an instruction to put his hands where the police could see them. (Then again, maybe the police didn’t realize that those two bricks were Jones’ hands . . . rim shot.)

Jones has been charged with felony drug possession. That’s seven points for the Jags in Turd Watch II.

It’ll be interesting to see whether the Jags decide based on this incident that it’s time to set him free. And, if they do, it’ll be interesting to see whether this former Arkansas Razorback (who apparently knows a thing or two about razor blades) might land on a team owned by another former Razorback.



Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Jerry recently quoted as being against taking chances on players with drug issues?

Emmitt Smith rule -- A player cannot remove his helmet while on the field of play, except in the case of obvious medical difficulty. Enacted in 1997.

Deion Sanders rule -- Player salary rule which correlates a contract's signing bonus with its yearly salary. Enacted after Deion Sanders signed with the Dallas Cowboys in 1995 for a minimum salary and a $13 million signing bonus.

Roy Williams rule -- no horse-collar tackles. Enacted in 2005 when Williams broke Terrell Owens's ankle and Musa Smith's leg on horse-collar tackles during the previous season.

Michael Irvin rule -- no taunting. Another rule, resulting in offensive pass interference, prohibiting WRs to push off CBs, is also often called "the Michael Irvin rule."

Mel Renfro rule-- allows a second player on the offense to catch a tipped ball, without a defender subsequently touching it. Enacted in 1978.

Tony Romo rule-- teams will now be given 45 minutes - 25 extra minutes than in years past - to prepare the balls for the game; and 12 sequentially numbered "K" balls will be used in the game, monitored by an official, instead of the ball boys. Enacted in 2007.

Erik Williams Rule-- no hands to the facemask by offensive linemen.

Did they ever put into effect the Marion Barber rule?

The only people who were interested in Matt Jones to begin with were just a mere 10% of Zoners here.

Otherwise, this "rumor" of him coming to Dallas never should have even have given second thought.
