DarrellShropshire Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 If the rumor of us trading back and taking an OL is true, I think we drop back to 12. CLE gets the WR they like, and since Scherff will probably be gone by 12, I think La'El Collins is the LG of the future.Dude is an absolute brick house, and has a NASTY mean streak.

Something about the homicide of a pregnant woman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1989Fan Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 CLE offered both round 1 picks to TEN for #2 to get Marriotta, or so they said on ESPN radio. Not sure than TEN would be interested in dropping that far back though. That said, I would love to go from 8 back to 12 if they throw in their 2nd rounder.

Sponge Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Trading up yesterday for Fowler, trading back today for OL. Sounds like we're in the middle- staying put at 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sponge Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 DB, this is pretty much spam at this point. Next time will be a 1 day suspension for draft day tomorrow. Of all days to get a 1 day suspension, tomorrow would take the cake. That would be like getting grounded for Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mr Plow Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) I like my offensive linemen when they're not being questioned for the murdering of pregnant women.To be fair, they initially said he wasn't a suspect, but even still. That's not necessarily an outstanding footnote to have prior to the draft. That is absolutely correct, but today his attorney said they are providing police with information and will eventually sit down with them in hopes that "Collins will be ruled out as a suspect of the homicide." So while the police have not officially called him a suspect, it's clear by his own attorney's words that he hasn't yet been ruled out. I can't imagine drafting him in the first round with this in mind. It's just too risky.Boren told ESPN. "We have offered to give names, witnesses who can vouch for his whereabouts that day until after the woman's body was discovered. We believe that when [police] have verified that information, that they will rule him out as a suspect in the homicide, just as I believe he should be."

That's not necessarily an outstanding footnote to have prior to the draft. Agreed. Horrible tragedy, questionable circumstances & bad timing for him. This is another report that can cost an NFL prospect millions by dropping his stock by creating questions about him. More drama everyday, the draft better get here soon before half of these kids are caught doing something stupid.LSU OL La'El Collins is not a suspect in the Baton Rouge murder he is being questioned in.Police want Collins to provide background information on the woman who was murdered. The woman was pregnant, and her baby was delivered before she died. Police believe Collins could be the father. Collins is expected to be a first-round pick.Apr 28 - 6:43 PMSource: ESPN.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheldon Cooper Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Collins does not hold blocks for long at all and falls off far too many blocks allowing quick pressure. Does not look like much of a drive blocker because of this. I do not want him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoFalconsFan56 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I'd rather just stay put at 8. Even if that meant drafting Gurley.Trading back for a LG? I'd rather take my chances at finding a LG in mid rounds where they belong. I can't wait for the madness to stop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jidady Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 No matter the outcome, I would imagine the Law & Order people had a script written about the Collins situation inside of 24 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lornoth Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 If the rumours are true, we're-Trading back for an o-linemanTrading up for WilliamsTrading up for FowlerStaying put for RayStaying put for BeasleyStaying put for GurleyTrading back and then up again for about 10 different combosAnd skipping the draft and turning our team into a soccer team.If we do as you suggest, I will be very disappointed though. Collins is just not a guy that jumps out at me, I'd rather get a guard in the 2'nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
