Collin's is a great talent and several NFL teams wanted him. They spent a good deal of time and money getting inside info (these guys are smart pros) from investigators, police, and others close to this situation and decided not to touch him, even in late draft rounds. They didn't just back away because of rumors. They got way more facts than any poster in this thread has and backed off.


LOL, so now the NFL has solved the case even before the BRPD has. Awesome. This is the same NFL that couldn't get a video tape for the Ray Rice fiasco though, right?

Or is it more plausible that they backed away because of the PR nightmare it would cause if he were to be arrested down the line. I know its not as sexy of a story but sounds more realistic to me.

Do you really think the NFL doesnt know what happened here?

The NFL doesn't have to prove the case in court beyond a reasonable doubt.

Is PR part of not drafting him I. The first two rounds yes, is it part of no one take a flier on him as an UDFA I would say no.
