This frustrates the shite out of me. Any team could have had him and he was well worth a late pick. Regardless what his camp said of holding out.. Call their bluff and he's worth the late round no risk.


If I remember correctly, picking him late actually would have given him more power. This is because if he was drafted at any point he could have sat out a year and reentered the draft next season, but going undrafted meant that he had no option but to sign this offseason.

Here's an article that mentions it LINK

Because the Saints coach and front office still think they are smarter than all the other guys in the room, and this season will continue the decline of the program.

Odd he would choose Dallas


You will never convince me that the NFL wasnt involved behind the scenes with Lael not being drafted. You have teams like Indy and now Denver that could be 1 OL away from the Super Bowl and they dont pick Lael in the 6th or 7th round? Some say his attorney called everyone and told them not to draft Lael because he would sit out the whole year. Thats a chance that u have to take if u are a GM, you must call that bluff, what are u losing? The draft is about finding value. GM's are bright guys and theres no way all 32 of them wouldnt have took that chance without some type of conspiracy. Hell Dallas just signed Gregory and Hardy, who was facing a 10 game suspension at the time.
And then u have to ask yourself why in the world Dallas and why so quick to sign with them? Something is up here and Id love to see a young reporter get knee deep into this. Lael wouldve had the entire NFL recruiting him and wouldve had extreme leverage. Leverage like money down the road and starting day 1.

The NFL wants to talk about integrity but u see this kinda crap over and over. Has anyone seen the NFL website itself and even some the individual teams are now advertising fights on their websites, but yet we are very concerned about player safety.

I LOVE seeing you trash talking Saints' fans squirm! All the trash talking you do and the HATE you have for Dallas for whatever reason is coming back to bite you. BTW, Collins DID NOT WANT TO PLAY FOR THE SAINTS!!! He was a free agent and CHOSE Dallas! Oh yeah, what was that score last season?

I dont believe there was enough time to hear everyones plan for him. Other than Rex Ryan, who made the in home visit?

So tell me what was Dallas' pitch that beat out everyone else? Come here for the minimum and sit the bench? And if u say he wanted to be a part of the best OL in history, I have some things u may be interested in purchasing.

Per Ronnie Rantz on 104.9, Collins did want to play for the Saints, but they were never interested.

Well, when the Saints don't take the hour drive to be at the man's doorstep after the draft, it's likely that a team with some balls would step up and take the man.
