Figured it could use its own thread. It's been swell Kenny,Steven,maybe even Darvin?

My wish list today would be Sergio,BA and Ellingson.

Because he is incentivized by interceptions he will go for the pick more often than the safer knock down. I can see him being beaten a lot.

yup....dumb clause for sure

Does any one think he actually makes it as a db? I say he plays 4 or less games with a 50 percent chance he doesn't start 1 game at db.

Collins is going to play with a chip on his shoulder. I bet he has a good year, if he gets a chance. 

I'd like tio see it here.

I wonder which team said this...

 

I think it was us that told him that or Ottawa since we run almost the same offence. In our offence receivers must be good blockers for the run game and our short passing game.

If you're not willing to block as hard as you play the rest of your game, you aren't going to FI on a MOS team.....

Yes, I would believe Ottawa too.

I'm leaning towards Ottawa. Collins also said people would be shocked to hear who it was.  Gave me a "As if a team that bad would turn me down" kinda vibe.

Ricky Collins is going on 5 teams in 5 seasons...  why can't he stay with a team? 

LOLOLOL

Sooooo you hold off on signing a locker room cancer until you are done signing all the other cancers? This is gonna go well. 

Gotta wonder if the Elks president Cui would have hired Jones as gm if he’d gotten his job first, because now they’re stuck with him due to money/front office salary cap.

The franchise went from inept to bizarro land clown-show in the blink of an eye.  Can only imagine how relieved Ellingson is to be out of there.

If he gets Lawler touches he did.

I think Elingson is a replacement for Adams. We still haven't replaced Lawler. Imagine if Bryant Mitchell signed?

Whats it like when guys take 2 years off the field? Do they normally get back to the same talent level or has time away hurt their game indefinitely

Good question, in Mitchell's case I'd like to find out.

And in your opinion what would you say the likely hood of that actually happening?

Probably pretty remote as we're up against the cap. He'd want Lawler money. Right now, I'd be extremely happy with Ricky Collins.

Depends on position. I would think a receiver could bounce back quickly.

He signed with us last year for 85k before retiring albeit that was the prorated amount. Not sure why he would demand almost triple now?

Collins would be nice but I just hope we sign Janarion Grant. He is way more impactful than Collins and has more upside

This is accurate. Find it odd he hasn't signed anywhere and we've heard nothing about him. Must be more to the story

Were teams paying receivers $250-$300,000 last year?

No....but he still signed for half of what the top guys were making, so why would he suddenly jump ahead of them?
