He's expensive, but really not more so than Robinson and we wouldn't be paying him more annually than we did him in 2009 (or this year had we tagged him again), right ? If DM is right, just a year at a time.
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.
