Plus PFT facts generally are on-target. PFT editorializing remains quite suspect. So as long as you are quoting facts you generally are in good shape.

Exactly, the editorials are the sketchy part of PFT. An analogy if you will. Tampering is to PFT as Lupus is to House.

PFT does a good job at gathering stories from different parts of the country and publishing it. I'd rather get scoops from Glazer, Schefter, or from local beat reporters (although some can be suspect as well). Regardless, I'd prefer to pass on a PFT story that has an additional source.

I would say that you can't get crap in a trade for Hall, but after getting picks for both McNabb and Haynesworth, I suppose you can get a late round pick for simply being willing to do the paperwork for another team.
