PacMan Suspended, Titans owe Cowboys a 5th round pick

20

"Adam" PacMan Jones' fight at a Dallas Hotel with his team assigned bodyguard has drawn a minimum 4 week suspension from the league. Under the terms of the trade with the Cowboys if PacMan was suspended at any point of the 2008 season the Titans would owe the Cowboys a 2009 5th round pick. The Titans originally traded PacMan for a 2008 4th round pick, so their final return is about equal to PacMan and 6th round pick for a 4th round pick (the rule of thumb on future picks is a discount of 1 round per year).

I think it's fair to say Ugoh has been demoted. Coach can say it's the groin injury, but Ugoh hasn't shown up on the injury report each of the past two weeks, so you do the math. I'd like to say this comes as a shock, but I raised the question about Ugoh in preseason and he hasn't shown he can stay healthy or be solid when he's on the field. I guess there's always a chance he could turn it around, but right now, he's sitting. Ryan Lilja is close. I don't know if he will come off PUP on Wednesday like Tyjuan Hagler, but coach says Ryan feels better, which means I expect him to be activated in the next three weeks.

"It's cool," Colts safety Antoine Bethea said. "They can shovel all the dirt they want on us. We know what kind of team we are. We know what we're capable of doing. The first four games we haven't played our type of ball."

Antoine Bethea remind the rest of the NFL that the Colts are still one of the best in the NFL.

Addai OK; Hart might not be

Joseph Addai strained his hammy in the first quarter, but Tony Dungy says he will be OK. Mike Hart, who made a big 3rd down and 1 short yardage play during the game, injured his knee. Dungy says Hart might have a "serious" injury.

Brannon Condren Cut By Rams

The Rams got rid of him. I liked him as a Colt, I thought he had a lot of promise. Should we go back after him?

Ryan (Lilja) is not eligible to come back (off the Physically Unable to Perform list) until the (October 19) Green Bay game and my guess right now is he has been out so long that it’s probably going to take a little longer than that to get him back and in shape and in position to play. I would say he’s probably three or four weeks away at this point.
