Source: Cowboys, Titans yet to agree on Pacman compensation
A discussed trade that would send Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones to Dallas appears to be in jeopardy, a Cowboys source has told ESPN.
Jones
The Titans and Cowboys have been in talks to arrange a deal sending the suspended defender and return specialist to Dallas, where he says he wants to play once his indefinite NFL suspension is lifted.
"It's pretty muddled," a Dallas source said. "Any time you have disputes over both the picks and the money, you have a real problem."
The teams held intense discussions Thursday night without being able to resolve their issues.
"The deal can still be made but there is a lot of work to do," a Titans source said.

PACMAN JONES
Adam "Pacman" Jones was suspended for the 2007 NFL season amid several legal skirmishes. His playing future rests in the hands of commissioner Roger Goodell, who expects to weigh a possible 2008 reinstatement before training camp opens in July. A look at coverage of Jones:
