Titans | Team seeking fourth-round pick for P. Jones

John Murphy, of Yahoo! Sports, reports the Tennessee Titans are looking to acquire the Dallas Cowboys fourth-round pick in the upcoming NFL Draft in trade for the rights to suspended CB Pacman Jones. The Cowboys originally offered a pick later in the draft before amending that to a draft pick and a player, however the most recent talks have focused on one of the team's higher draft choices, either a pick in the fourth or fifth round. If the National Football League does not decide on the short-term future of Jones, who is expected to file papers with the league for re-instatement as early as Monday, April 14, than a trade for Jones to the Cowboys could include a later-round pick in 2007 and a conditional choice in 2008, which would protect both teams in case Jones were not to be re-instated in a timely manner that would allow him to join his new team before the start of training camp.
