Boys giving up a 4th round pick and a conditional pick in 09. Hopefully nothing more than a 6th or 7th rounder. This addition is a definite risk, but I think its one worth taking. Assuming he's re-instated, Jones will instantly improve the defensive backfield for the Boys. This will more than likely get Roy off the field during obvious passing downs which is a huge improvement.
Like I said, Jones is worth the risk, and I think the Boys have a solid locker room and great counseling program to keep Jones inline.

How did that work out for the likes of Mike Irvin? Or Nate Newton? Or Mark Tuinei?

About as well as it did for your dead linebacker.

That's what the Titans said too.
Nice to see the Cowboys brass is living in a river in Egypt.

Lemme see, Pacman gets in an argument at strip club. Pacman threatens people at strip club. People at strip club get shot. Gunman who shot people at strip club gets 15,000 payoff from Pacman.
They knew this and STILL made the deal? What a bunch of fucking tards.

He was a model teammate last year....no reason to think otherwise this year.

Got anybody who still plays in the NFL? Anybody who played this millennium?
Anybody brought in after Calvin Hill was hired to work with player personnel?
Yeah, didn't think so.
Unless you want to drop Quincy Carter in there. Remind me what they did with him?
I know you love to latch on to that 90's crack wagon moniker, but the truth is that the Cowboys organization over the last decade has been one of the cleanest in the NFL.
So keep living in the past, Hell, if I was a KC fan I sure as hell would.
The reality is that this is a low risk move. Sure pacman is a high risk player, but a 4th round draft pick this year and a 6th next for a former #6 pick seems like a good gamble. Hell, they get that 4th round pick back if Goodell doesn't re-instate him this year.
He's not being brought in to be a savior. He'll be a nickel guy and a punt returned.
I still think the Cowboys take a DB in the 1st round. But PacMan may be a good insurance policy while a third guy develops.

The Dolphins said the same shit about Lawrence Phillips.

That is open to interpretation… he didn't handle the Jessica Simpson situation too well. He should have said no comment. Both times. And he fucking cried about the whole ordeal ("that's my quarterback!!!! ~sniffle~") like the little bitch that he is.

Maybe he meant by Cowpoke standards he was a model teammate.

From a pratical standpoint this is a good move by the Cowboys to pick up great talent for nothing.
I am not sold on Pacmans conversion but I know that the Cowboys have Calvin Hill working on that.
As to the TO haters.
81 catches 1355 yards and 15 TD's
Worked hard on and off the field. Showed up every game he played. Didn't take plays off. No issues about not getting enough touches. No issues with any teamate. He showed support for 'his" QB. Which might be the first time.
Unlike a few other recievers from other teams getting in trouble with the law, holding out etc...
I would think that fits the whole "Ideal Teamate" catagory.
