Pacman isn't a bust, he is an idiot. The guy can play.

Re: Pac Man Jones Rumor.
Just how talented of a player is Pacman Jones?
With Adam (Pacman) Jones' problems off the field leaving open the possibility he might be released or traded by the Titans in the near future, I thought it would be a good time to see just how good Jones is on the field.
Jones is regarded by many as one of the best special teams players in the league. He led the NFL in punt return average and punt return touchdowns last year, and also ranked sixth in the league in kickoff return average.

The part of Jones' game that seems to get lost, with all of the attention paid to his return skills, is his pass coverage prowess. Here are his coverage metric from 2006:

Adam Jones
Att Comp Yds TD INT Pen P-Yds YPA
58--24---323--1--5---1---5---5.7


The YPA figure places Jones in the Champ Bailey category, and it wasn't a one-year anomaly for Jones. In the second half of the 2005 season, Jones' YPA was 4.9. For the past year and a half, Jones has been one of the most dominant cover cornerbacks in the NFL.

Usually, if a player with off-the-field issues is talented enough, some team will find a roster spot for him. Jones is one of the best players in the league, so he is certainly talented enough. If the Titans end up releasing Jones, or putting him on the trade market, the list of suitors should be long.
