What Price for Pacman?
By Rafael Vela 85 Comments
Talks between the Titans and Cowboys for Pacman Jones have apparently reached an impasse.
That?s understandable. Dallas wants him, but doesn?t want to give up too much because he?s damaged goods; his suspension leaves him no room for future error. The Titans, on the other hand, want return on their heavy investment. He was the 6th overall pick in the 2005 draft.
Pacman the player has value. I?ve posted his numbers from the 2006 Scientific Football, where he ranked second in success % and was a top five player in YPA. The man was All-Pro that year. He was not a Pro Bowler; he was an All Pro, and that squad runs one deep.
The light went on for Pacman at the same time it went on for the rest of his team. The ?06 Titans started out 0-5 and were 2-7 nine games in. Then they went on a six game winning streak that took them to the edge of the playoffs. Here?s how Pacman contributed to Tennessee?s run:
Week 11, Titans 30 - Eagles 13
A 90 yard 3rd quarter punt return breaks open the game. Jones adds 3 tackles and a pass defensed.
Week 12, Titans 24, Giants 21
The Titans comeback from 21-0 with 24 4th quarter points. Mathius Kiwanuka?s ?catch and release? of Vince Young got most of the press but Pacman jump started the win, picking off Eli Manning to set up the 1st Titans TD, returning a punt 23 yards to give Tennessee a short field for their second TD and picking Manning at midfield and returning to New York?s 34 in the waning seconds to set up the winning field goal.
His final line ? 3 tackles, 2 interceptions and 3 passes defensed.
Week 13, Titans 20, Colts 17
Five tackles and 3 assists for Jones as Tennessee holds the Colts to 3 points over the final 37 minutes and rallies from a 14-0 deficit.
Week 14, Titans 26, Texans 20
Four tackles, a sack, a quarterback hurry and a big 36 yard kickoff return that puts gives Tennessee great field position on its game winning overtime drive.
Week 15, Titans 24, Jaguars 17
Three tackles, an assist, 3 passes defensed and an 83 yard interception return for a touchdown.
Week 16, Titans 30, Bills 29
Five tackles, 2 assists and a 45 yard kickoff return.
He wasn?t Jim Thorpe but Pacman had his moments. He was the catalyst to the Giants win. He was huge in the Jaguars game.
The man makes plays. That?s why Jerry Jones wants him wearing a Cowboys uniform ASAP. It?s why Tennessee wants so much for him.
But that fact that Dallas is the only team showing serious interest right now, despite his incredible on-field potential, is one reason why Dallas is not willing to pay any price.
And why some ? some on this site ? still wonder if he?s worth any price.
