The Saints have screwed up drafts? FACT
Many LSU players are doing well in the NFL? FACT
The OP probably can't name an offensive lineman from the 2015 NFL Draft that didn't go to LSU and sounds like a bitter little bitch because he thinks there is an LSU Conspiracy in the front office? FACT

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

I do not see how someone like Goodell can make a player "undraftable". If an owner says frick you I want him, I pay your salary...What kind of reprecussions could he enforce for a franchise using a draft pick on a player in the draft? Why was he not removed altogether and placed in the supplemental? When a 1sr round talent falls to Jerry as an UDFA it looks shady as frick to me.

Is there a previous case with a similar outcome that you are basing your opinion on or do you just puke on keys as a form of passive aggression when you sad?

I'm agreeing with your statement

Oh...well you should have just said so 
My bad

It's the textbook collusion and whatever team drafted him could've just told his agent about it and Goddell is powerless to do anything unless he wants to get fired and the league lose a giant lawsuit.

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.

I would rather a pissed off elite talent OL that I have rights to vs. what happened. If the NFL wants to change the rules after the Saints benefitted from them the following season it wouldn't be the first time.

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.
Goodell trying to play God...

We could have had him for free. Someone must be held accountable.

I seriously wish we would have gotten Collins instead of Peat this year and Jarvis Landry instead of Stanley Jean-Baptiste last year.... two horrible picks if you ask me, and the other two are no brainers with the attitude you want.

The latter was under a different scouting group

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

Well how many LSU players are on the roster of the Sainrs compared to the 32 other teams in the league?

Does it really matter he was available?

Enough with the La'el shite. Take that talk to the Rant.. He's not a Saint, and no one gives 2 fricks what he's doing in the league unless he's wearing a Saints jersey. Please stfu and go away.
But you just sit there and wonder...WHY THE frick NOT?!

No we don't.
He didn't want to come here.
