Kind of like T.O.'s contract. When he signed it was still fresh in everyones mind the turmoil he caused in Philly. So even though Owens signed a 3 year deal, it was worded in such a way that it was essentially 3-one year deals, so if he raised havoc, Dallas could release him with zero cap hit.

The same will be done for Jones, where if he messes up, the contract will be worded so Dallas can release him without a cap hit.

This guy is a big risk, granted. But there is little reward without risk in anything.

But if he gets in trouble or does not get reinstated, Dallas has lost very little, just a 4th round pick in 2008. But if that happens they will get that 4th rounder back in 2009.

But look at the upside, if Jones plays and has his act together then they have legitimate depth at corner with Henry, Newman and Jones. Not to mention a pretty good return guy.

However Dallas has done pretty good with 4th rounders as of late. Marion Barber and Chris Canty were both 4th round picks and now both have the high tender on them.

I heard that he would get NO signing bonus when he signs the new contract with the Cowboys.

Contractually it may be safe, but you have to wonder about bringing this kind of clown into the clubhouse. Yeah, he's probably going out in a ball of flames, and that's great that it won't hit the Cowgirls' cap, but what if he gets somebody else suspended, too?

Dear Mr. Jones,
I would like to inform you that your request to draft from the Texas State Penn has been declined by the NFL by myself and my advisory board. I understand your standpoint and, to a certain extent, agree that the inmates can be as strong, angry, and determined as any NFL player. However, I do not feel that the inmates will have the moral ingegrity to provide as role models and/or positive influences for the NFL. I offer to you my apologies because I know how desperate you are to get quality players despite their previous reputations, i.e. Terrell Owens, Tank Johnson, and your recent Pacman Jones. Good luck today, and please take you time to make positive choices and/or trade all of your quality backups for day two draft picks.

Yours Truly,
Comish
