I think it's a bluff. It doesn't make any sense. It would be wiser to get into the league and start working towards that second contract, that's the payday anyway.


He can have whatever contract he can negotiate as a unrestricted free agent next year. So basically, by going to Canada, he doesn't have to wait 3 years to get the "second contract."



i feel like this can't be true b/c otherwise a lot more people would intentionally do this.

No one does this because people like Collins get taken in the first round and make millions of dollars. People who go in rounds 4-7 would rather be in the NFL than Canada.

Let me rephrase, if he gets drafted and refuses to sign, he will go back into the draft (I think). If he goes undrafted, he will be an URFA after a year.
