Given the points you mentioned, I don't think he's a good human being, but as a football player, I'd rather his talents be helping the Colts than, say, the Cheaters. I'd also rather win championships than have the highest character locker room, and Clark (as well as Ford) brings something the Colts sorely lacked in 2018, effectiveness as a pass rusher. Signing both of those players would allow Ballard to purely focus on BPA in the draft and otherwise try to find value in free agency.
Everyone has to draw their own line somewhere. For me, Clark is on the other side of the line. I wouldn't be able to enjoy a good play by him because it would always be at the back of my mind that he is the type of person that suckerpunches teammates in practice and drunkenly beats up women. That isn't enjoyable to me. I don't need choir boys, but there's a line and that's just how I choose to approach my enjoyment of the game.
