32 NFL teams passed on La'el Collins in the draft. Not just the Saints. EVERY. SINGLE. TEAM. Once he was an UDFA, it was completely up to him where he went. He did not choose us. It comes down to that.

Y'all are beating a dead horse. Goodell made damn sure NO team drafted him in any round. A talent like Collins just doesn't get overlooked in the 7th at the least.

yeah, yeah I heard all that shite before. It still was a terrible mistake by the Saints. Could have picked him in the seventh. Screw Goodell! What serious crap was he gon do if they had taken him?? lol

But EVERY. SINGLE. TEAM. didn't have their HC out there saying Collins would be drafted.

And - keep in mind, he asked not to be drafted after he fell to the second day - his agent decided it would be a stronger negotiating position to be an UDFA at that point, than to take 6th or 7th round money. In hindsight, that's clearly the best move - if you have a 1st/2nd round guy who drops because of off-the-field issues that can be cleared up like these were - you tell him to pass on being drafted and go UDFA like Collins did. This will be a new template set for what is obviously a bizarre and very rare situation.

They are 50 miles away from BR. They COULD have made some calls to get the story on Collins - especially BEFORE he went UFFA.
