Saint's interested in Pacman?

The problem I have with Haynesworth are not his off-the-field problems (if he even has any, i'm not aware of any). He's had I think 2 spitting incidents in practice, was nearly party to a fight between Vince Young and a defensive player over violent hits in a non-contact drill ("We need more thugs on defense" being Haynesworth's quote), of course the Gurode face-stomping incident, etc.

He's just too unstable. The risk of him blowing his top and alienating himself to the team or doing something in a game that will probably result in a lengthier suspension since it won't be his first "incident" is pretty high.

He says he's improved, I think he had to do a variety of "anger management" work as part of his first suspensions, and maybe he has. I mean people mellow out as they get older. That's an evaluation the staff would have to make.

But considering you'd have to trade a high draft pick and hand him a huge contract . . . just strikes me as risky.


Pacman is almost the inverse. We can probably get him for cheap draft pick-wise and contractually, just because he's got no negotiating leverage at all. But the bad publicity and risk of him doing something that gets him kicked from football permanently strikes me as significantly higher.
