TEAMS TAKING A SHINE TO PACMAN?

In a development that either is evidence of the value of a solid cornerback-kick returner or proof that pro football teams are still willing to overlook the turdish behavior of talented players, it appears that multiple teams are interested in Tennessee Titans cornerback Pacman Jones.

According to the Tennesseean, the Cowboys, the Dolphins, the Lions, the Raiders, the Chiefs, the Texans, the Saints, and the Patriots have expressed "at least some level of interest."

Our guess is that someone is puffing a bit in the hopes of driving up the level of compensation that the Titans get for the sixth overall pick in the 2005 draft. Miami V.P. of football operations Bill Parcells has said that he doesn't want "thugs and hoodlums," and Jones (in our opinion) is both. And if the Patriots expressed "some level if interest" in Jones, the specific level of interest likely was "hardly any."

Then, we wouldn't be surprised to learn that Parcells and his son-in-law, Pats V.P. of player personnel Scott Pioli, have agreed to feign interest in Jones in the hopes that Jets G.M. Mike Tannenbaum would feel compelled to plunge into the bidding for a guy who would then contribute to a potential internal collapse of the franchise.
