And Fat Albert may be a horses-azz at times and lazy at times, but he's not a gangster, a guy who carriers a gun and hangs out with the wrong crowd. Fact is no off field problems as I recall ?
And what a talent ! Man he could "potentially" be so valuable to us. There's certainly a significant downside here, but there's a lot of potential here to.
But admittedly it would be a crap-shoot taking him on, and a 2nd-round pick is no small sum to get in the game.
Reminds me of an Archie Bunker line when he responds to his daughter about how many people die from being shot by guns:

"Would you feel better, little girl, if they were pushed out of windows?"
