re: Just curious? Would Lael Collins have a case against the BRPD?

BRPD didn't exactly try to clear him quickly. Seemed liked they took their time after they had a good idea he was not the likely suspect. I think they were scared of it blowing up in their face if they cleared him early but it cost him millions. They could have had a news conference day before the draft and said what evidence they did or did not have. BRPD definitely did not do Collins any favors.

He had not gone in and talked to them before the draft. That was the problem. They called and told them there was a murder, his name came up and they needed to talk to them. He refused and said he was going to the draft and refused to come in. So it made its way out to the public that his name came up in the murder investigation. Apparently from the child of the deceased.
He should have immediately grabbed a lawyer and gone in to talk before going to the draft.
At the same time his agent should have been on the phone with the NFL and teams and telling anyone who would listen this came up. La el is cooperating fully and on his way to the police station to see what was going on and how he could help the investigation and clear his name.
By stonewalling he screwed himself

good lord, it's not the police department's job to have a press conference to help the employment chances of the people they talk to. He got a bad break, but it was all about unlucky timing. All this happened at the worst time - right before the draft. And that's what hurt him.
But it's not the cop's job to worry about his draft chances. They were investigating a murder. The other stuff is for him and his agent to worry about.
