Chuck Wagon Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 We did meet with him pre-draft: https://twitter.com/rand_getlin/status/595594404078833664 That makes me feel a bit better. Such a rollercoaster over a guy who might not even be able to play (both from legal perspective or not from being that good). We land him and our offseason is an absolute home run and the pick we lost from Sammy is replaced. He goes to Miami and we have to play him twice per year.
mitchmurraydowntown Posted May 5, 2015 Author Posted May 5, 2015 Can you make this simple for the rest of us ?? What's up ?? Highlights ?? Oooh...Now this is interesting!

YoloinOhio Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 When they sign Collins he would be our 2015 1st round pick.pegs should fly him to nyc so he can shake Roger's hand
SouthernMan Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 He's not. He just cannot be ruled out. He was in a different city the night it happened, and he passed a lie detector test, and the cops say he is not a suspect and only questioned him from media requests. He also allegedly hadn't spoken to her in months, and may or may not have been the father of the kid. So then, why the stink all over this kid? His ex-girlfriend was murdered and he's not connected to it, other than he hasn't been ruled out. Unless the authorities know for sure who committed the crime, I guess nobody is ruled out. How was Winston drafted # 1. Was he ruled out? I can understand a few teams shying away if they'd heard some rumors, but a top OL prospect going undrafted? So, the OT, Denzell Goode, drafted at # 255 in the 7th round, is less risk and higher value to the team than Collins? Something is fishy.
Chuck Wagon Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 pegs should fly him to nyc so he can shake Roger's hand Or complete the body slam Danny Shelton started.
Lurker Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 pegs should fly him to nyc so he can shake Roger's hand And mis-pronounce his name...
Fires Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 It was 2004, hurricanes Francis and Jean both made land fall along the Treasure Coast. More Vero Beach than Port St Lucie. Port St Lucie is on the St. Lucie River, not directly on the coast. I think they both made land fall as cat threes. We were evacuated for both. The next year was when there were so many named storms that they got into the Greek Alphabet. We got hit by Wilma, a cat three. No one was evacuated because they thought it was only going to be a tropical storm. It was pretty scary. We haven't had a major storm since. I live in Jensen Beach, a month without power or water...Ill never forget that. I would rather deal with a blizzard..
John from Riverside Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 This has been such a fun offseason as a bills fan!
Canadian Bills Fan Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Bills should just send him this pic and say do you really want to face these guys twice a year? And we didnt even include Hughes! CBF

Collins would have sat out the year and entered the '16 draft if he was drafted after the 3rd round. Teams were not able to gain sufficient clearance to risk a pick in the top 3 rounds. Because he wasn't drafted, he can't reenter the draft. The Buccaneers had months of information gathering on Jameis, this situation literally just happened.
YoloinOhio Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Hmmmm @ArmandoSalguero: Dolphins coach Joe Philbin is not visiting La'el Collins in Baton Rouge or anywhere else. Neither are Mike Tannenbaum nor Dennis Hickey.

mitchmurraydowntown Posted May 5, 2015 Author Posted May 5, 2015 I live in Jensen Beach, a month without power or water...Ill never forget that. I would rather deal with a blizzard.. That rarely happens man, like never. It's obvious that the infrastructure there was so badly damaged because of the way power & water was being transmitted. I'll assume every power cable was low hanging & above ground, right ?? I've been by there before and remember thinking this is not a modern place.
Chuck Wagon Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Hmmmm @ArmandoSalguero: Dolphins coach Joe Philbin is not visiting La'el Collins in Baton Rouge or anywhere else. Neither are Mike Tannenbaum nor Dennis Hickey. Wow. Either Rex did close the deal after all or they are just sending their LSU possee.
ddaryl Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Let me know how many bad ones she's had. Your Mom could also be overpaying as well, which after reading the verbiage of your post is about 99% likely. Apple's never fall far from the tree. LMAO you are a real piece of work http://www.swinglecollins.com/top-5-most-expensive-states-for-homeowners-insurance/ http://www.valuepenguin.com/average-cost-of-homeowners-insurance http://www.swinglecollins.com/top-5-most-expensive-states-for-homeowners-insurance/ Calling me out.. thats funny..

Why would no one take him in even the 7th round. Kind of ridiculous. Although, if he refused to sign, it's almost like his agents wanted to be able for him to choose a team.
