La'el Collins Agent: Draft Him Now Or He Won't Sign

La’El Collins’ reps tell me if he’s not selected in rounds 2 or 3, he’ll not sign a contract with NFL team & resubmit his name for ’16 draft

 

This is an incredible bluff or show of power in an unprecedented situation. If Collins were to be drafted on day 3 or as an undrafted free agent he would be stuck at low pay via restricted free agency and the rookie wage scale for the next 4 years. His agent realizes clearing his name and going in the first round of the 2016 draft would be more lucrative. The only question is would teams still consider him a 1st rounder with a year away from football?

 

I understand why the Agent is doing this. But damn is it ballsy.

I understand it's a business but.. This comes off as a money grab.

What is the monetary difference between his originally projected draft position vs say, a 4th round..?

 

Of course it is.

 

But if he's 100% innocent, can you blame him? He can just wait one more year and get paid way more over a 4-5 year period.

If he didn't have anything to do with the murder this sucks so bad...

 

I understand no one wants to take the risk and rightfully so...but it sorta sounds like his ex (who's kid may not even be his) suffered a horrible horrible fate and he wasn't even involved.  He's helping the PD with the investigation because the kid might be his.  Now for that, the entire league avoids him.  If he's innocent, damn does that suck for him.

      Who will blow it Sunday?

      They are 1 and 9 against the  Bucs in the past 10 games. the Panthers go as young goes.  QB1 ‘s are suppose to dictate and overcome  and elevate Everything the QB does affects every part of the team and Bryce is uneven. Canales and Bryce have  an uneven relationship too  as for Evero, the only thing that might save him is the injury to Baker’s left shoulder and oline injuries. I don’t even know how he is out there   I really feel their season ended last Sunday Canales’ division record isn’t great   Getting owned by the Saints and Bucs isn’t a good look

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Jacabee · Posted

      Frankly surprised by the amount of people that want to hang Evero. This was a defense that was almost universally considered the bottom of the barrel before this season started. We’ve managed to stat our way to the middle of the pack whatever that means. Those critical of the zone schemes, what do you want? When even JC is getting burnt one on one by Olave you have little choice. There definitely have been moments where the zone blitz stuff has bit us. That said, are the third string linebackers (and nick Scott) covering poo anyway? This unit had only conceded 10 points going into the fourth quarter despite a litany of bullshit penalties on both sides. Them over performing is the biggest reason we are still in playoff contention.
