REPORT: PACMAN TO COWBOYS “IMMINENT”
Posted by Michael David Smith on March 27, 2008, 8:18 p.m.
Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that a trade that would send suspended Tennessee Titans cornerback Pacman Jones to the Dallas Cowboys is imminent.
According to Schefter, the Cowboys and Titans spent Thursday discussing the trade and should be able to work out a deal soon. Although Schefter reports that the teams are still a few rounds apart in discussing compensation — the Titans have asked for a third-round pick and the Cowboys have offered a sixth-round pick — the deal could get done within the next couple of days.
In fact, Jones could be in Dallas this weekend to announce a deal at team headquarters before Cowboys officials leave for the league meetings in Florida.
There’s still the matter of Jones needing to be reinstated. Although suspended players can be traded, merely acquiring the rights to Jones doesn’t do the Cowboys any good unless NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell allows him to play. It is unclear when or whether that will happen.
But it’s increasingly looking like if Jones plays in the NFL again, it will be with a star on his helmet.
