For a team that is lacking in talent on the defensive side of the ball he is a risk worth taking. A team like the Raiders likes to take risks on guys with baggage and that has worked for them in the past(been a LONG time though). As conservative as he is Joe Gibbs in the past has put up with off the field issue's with proven contributers like Dexter Manley, Sean Taylor, even NASCAR driver Tony Stewert but with them he knew what he was going to get on the playing field. I just dont see him going after a potential distraction with a guy who has proven nothing at the NFL level.
