Coach had people contact brpd and get details about investigation. From my understanding everybody in police world knew a week ago that he wasn't even in town. Could have put hit out but that's it

Collins’s representatives are saying that if he’s not selected in Rounds 2 or 3, he won’t play. If a team drafts him in Round 4 or later, he’ll decline to sign with that team


...you know like, facts and stuff are kinda cool round these parts. Feel free

This has been discussed 100s of times.
Collins agent openly said Collins would refuse to sign the contract if drafted after the third round and he would enter next years draft, which would have been allowed.
Further, that team would have been unable to draft him again the following year, so it's a lose lose for that team.
Since he didn't get drafted, entering next years draft isn't an option. So now he must sign as an udfa

Can say the same for the other 31 GM's that decided not to spend a 7th rounder on him.

This, but his agent should have kept his month shut and just let it happen

Would you still have that opinion if it were the saints that lost a draft pick and unable to draft him the next year?
