The story doesn't go into WHO said he was cleared specifically or any details but this may just be breaking.

 

"In a developing story that has become more clear as the days roll on former LSU offensive lineman La'el Collins has been cleared as a suspect in the shooting death of his former girlfriend Brittney Mills."

 

So it's either irresponsible reporting or they broke the being "cleared" part but aren't giving specifics. If it ends up being nonsense please delete but I figured it warranted a new thread.

If the kid truly had nothing to do with this and was simply a victim of circumstance, he got screwed HARD.

 

With that said, there's no way that Gettleman and other Panthers' staff haven't had some conversations with Trai Turner to get the scoop on this guy.  I have to think if he's fully cleared, we make a hard push to sign him.

You have to assume he has an idea where he is playing now. Teams cant really pay him whatever, hes locked into a contract structure. If hes completely cleared lets see where he ends up.

Say he did pick the Panthers. Itd be an attention grabbing story that will, without warrant, raise the expectation level for the season in the media.

Now is it a free for all for his services?

After May 9th (when LSU finishes finals) teams will be in full frenzy mode but he may have already selected a team or narrowed it down to a few. He can meet with those teams after 9 May.

    • no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.
    • Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
