The Dallas Cowboys and Tennessee Titans have agreed in principle on a trade for suspended cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones, sources told ESPN on Wednesday.
Dallas will send its fourth-round pick in Saturday's draft to the Titans for Jones.
There are also conditions attached to the trade related to Jones being reinstated by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell and how much he plays for the Cowboys. If he plays a significant amount of time in 2008, the Titans will get an additional pick from the Cowboys in 2009.
If he doesn't get reinstated by the NFL, the Titans will send an undisclosed 2009 draft pick back to the Cowboys.
Also, Pacman has reached a financial settlement with the Titans regarding his contract situation. ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports that Jones must pay $500,000 to a charity chosen by the Titans sometime in the next two years. He will receive a new contract from the Cowboys.

I think it's absolute BS that the Titans were allowed to trade him before he is reinstated. And I think the Cowboys are playing with some very bad karmic fire by trading for him.
Does a reinstated Pacman make the Cowboys better--absolutely. Would I make that deal if I'm Jerry Jones--no chance in hell.

It's not whether you win or lose, it's how good you look playing the game

No kidding. That certainly would be a show! Add in Daunte Culpepper as their backup QB and the show gets even more exciting, not to mention X-rated

In all fairness, he still was under the control of the Titans and still technically an active player.
