Adam Jones Wants Out

i shall no longer be calling Adam Jones by his nickname anymore becuase in a recent interview this happened:

Q: So where will you be in 2-3 years?

A: Hopefully two Pro Bowls...ummm....hopefully I can get out of Tennessee, I wanna go to Dallas, so....we'll see how it go, man, I'll just keep my head up.

yes you read right, the team that took a chance on him and drafted him in the first round, stuck by him through all his problems and praised him for his good performances and even kept him on the team when he was suspended for a year when we could have easily got rid of him...now wants out of Tennessee becuase he is apparently to good for us.

is this it for the Adam Jones/Tennessee Titans rollercoaster ride?

Sure, send the trouble maker to Dallas...I am not sure his attitude is a fit...but then again, TO has adjusted...and a good DB is a good DB...

Re: Adam Jones Wants Out

That statment prob just cost him the loyalty of the remaining titans fans that want him around. Jerry Jones loves him some thugs and criminals(90's cowboys) in dallas so of course he would go after pacman. Who would we get in a trade if it went down?

depends on a lot of factors...when we decide to get rid of him? who they have on their roster and how desperate they are for him? if they even want him? if we decide to do it during the draft or pre-draft...a lot of things really but if they want him im sure we can get a good deal for him, because anyone interested in a player with a rap sheet as long as his must be desperate to get him

Re: Adam Jones Wants Out

Uh, no Not Jones. I swallowed it when TO came in, and rolled my eyes about Tank. But not Jones. This guy is nothing but trouble, good DB or not. We dont need him.

Re: Adam Jones Wants Out

Make that another vote for no Pac Man. Dallas fans have been through the trouble makers for as far back as "Hollywood" Henderson. I want a cleaner image for this team, and I want them to deserve it. Like Bette said, I've put up with TO, and had to take Tank, but NO Pac Man. Let him go to some 1-15 team and re-pay his dues. Get some humility back.

The last thing this team needs is another distraction, assuming he is even re-instated.

I would take him...and put a clause in his contract where he forfeits a signing bonus etc for certain things like arrests etc...if he screws up, I am not out anything.

He still could have a bad effect on the team. Probably take a few of them with him to one of his favorite strip clubs

I, for one, just don't see the desire in him to turn his life around. That requires changes and sacrifices to be made, and Jones just seems content living the same old life. I want him to get it turned around, I really do, but he really hasn't give much cause for hope, you know?

i might be wrong but i thought he did what he was asked to do and that was to stay out of trouble and he might be asked to come back in week 10 and he did just that he did wrestling to keep him buisy and off the streats and he made a full page letter apoligizing to the people in the newspaper and yet it wasnt good enough to return and so now he is wanting to go somewhere else to get a fresh start and people are still saying he is nothing but trouble.but it's just my opinion and yours is your opinion so im not going to argue im just trying to pursuade you guys to think better of the guy because you guys make him sound like vick or o.j. simpson or something and he's not.
