re: La'el Collins reportedly signing with Cowboys

How can there be collusion, by NFL owners, when LC's own agent said his client wouldn't sign if he didn't go in first 3 rounds?
A previous poster stated LC is a multi-million dollar asset. HUH? It is well chronicled that for the most part professional sports teams consider athletes as pieces of meat. They don't care one bit about LC because there is always going to be players who can replace him. He is not considered a can't miss prospect. He does not play a position that the NFK can market around or even sell tickets. Odell Beckham JR is a multi-million dollar asset, LC not so much.
As of right now, he is viewed as a borderline 1st round talent with baggage. The NFL has legendary security and investigative protocols. I guarantee NFL security has spoken to members of BRPD that they have consulted with in the past. If no NFL team signs him to a free agent deal, then its obvious the league knows why they need to stay away.
Has one LSU coach spoken out in favor or support of LC?

Very dumb move by not knowing the rules. If he really wanted to wait till next years draft, he should have kept his mouth shut and someone would have drafted him.
Hopefully he can get cleared and re petition the NFL and they will look at the circumstances and let him in the supplemental draft. He has been a model citizen and never been in any kind of trouble.

Collins will visit with a NFL coach this evening in Baton Rouge. Wonder if it's the home town team. Regardless I Hope he signs soon.

I read one article that stated Cam Cameron called EVERY NFL team in the league, and the ones most interested in LC more than once.

So did he take a paternity test today?

I wish I could divine who is and who isn't. It's hard to tell sometimes.

Where's the tylenol?

I'd guess that Collins told Cam he was innocent. Ok. So has there been anything so far to set La'el free from any wrong doing? All the NFL teams didn't pass over him for no good reason. This has been the weirdest shite.

I agree. So why are you arguing with me. The attorney you are in high praise of is the one who said he was trying to eliminate him as a suspect. The means to that point they were unsuccessful at getting that done.
I never said any different.
Considering the ramifications, it wasn't the best quote to say at the time.

About LC, you are correct. Never said differently.
Now about other things...lol that you think you are superior because you think your relevant to the board.

The NFL teams passed because they didn't have enough information to be certain of anything. It's as simple as that. They don't have some big secret. There is La'el's side, the family of the victim has a side and then there is independent info gathering. There simply isn't a final answer yet. La'el walking out of the police office without handcuffs could be encouraging enough for some teams to take a chance now.

Collusion isn't about results or counter-tactics. I was just speculating that the NFL owners came to an agreement to not draft La'El, in order to protect the league as a whole. Somebody else said that was collusion but the NFL already engages in business tactics that would be illegal in other industries so..
