Cowboys, Titans reportedly engaged in Pacman talks *Merge*

Which means he's a player, but it says nothing at all about his ability to be this "fiery leader" some are claiming he is...

Never said he wasn't talented, just that he's a head case, and for sure, no leader for any team, in any sense of the word...

Since when did we need him for leadership, Can he play, what's our risk ? at this point if he has any iota of intelligence he know's he has to tow the line.
Or he's flipping burgers at Micky D's.
Is there other comparable talent to pick up on the Cheap?

I think what everyone forgets is that we have a team full of good guys. If you stick a bad player on a team full of good players, the bad player has really only one option, to become a good guy.

We have leaders at all the positions that need them. We have players that won't allow hazardous actions around the team. I think our team is trong enough to take a guy like pacman and turn his life around. If not, then you can bet Jerry will get rid of him.

We haven't had a leader in the secoundary since woodson quit, just one more reason roy looks so lost out t here

:starspin I've been wondering the same thing myself in terms of what the Titan's would receive from us for him. I would think - that they would want/expect to get something higher than a 6th or 7th rounder though.

because alot of our free agents signed with other teams we will get picks in 09.. I wouldn't have a probelm with the 7th/6th this year.. and a pick next year

Of course talent helps. Why would a team ditch a player in spite of it?

Besides, every situation is different. Tank was a very low-cost gamble. T.O. had never been in legal trouble. Neither was as bad a guy as PacMan.

I wonder if the attitude is going to be that, well, T.O. worked out, so now that shows we can take on every thug and bad actor.

tank turned out to a high cost gamble. tanbk signing cost us our starting NT fergason.

I was for the tank signing but i didn;t want to trade him just add him.

Are you kidding? I thought Ferguson's torn bicep cost us Ferguson. You can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that Ferguson tore his bicep, and than later we signed Tank, only to backup Ratliff, who only performed at a high level all year. But maybe I'm wrong, maybe I was watching a different 2007 season.

you watched the same season. I just think that fergie is the best of all three. the play of ratliff WITH the tank signing made it possible to cut the better player.

What?

The better player?

Ferguson was on the decline when we signed him, and was starting to get dinged up a lot. The better player is the one who can stay on the field. Besides, he doesn't get enough penetration to be effective in Wade's defense.
