Moving this to NFL General

[Colts_Fan12]

Why they hell would he sign there!! He said contender and he won't start there either the * signs with the team with the best Oline in football?

[JasonABrown]

Wrong section pal. 

 

Realized it after I posted.  Hopefully the mods can move it.  

[ColtsLegacy]

Those poor Cowboys. They really need the offensive line help.

[crestmount]

Cowboys don't seem too concerned with character issues

[aaron11]

what happened to not signing with anyone unless he was picked in the third round or better?

[Dustin]

Cowboys don't seem too concerned with character issues

What are his "character issues"?

[Superman]

Rats. Oh well...

I was thinking the same thing.  They have the best OL in the league. 

[Bluefire4]

He was denied of both reentering the draft next year and being placed in the supplemental draft so he had no choice.

why was he denied the supplemental draft?  i thought that's what it was there for

[TheBlueAndWhite]

He only signed with the cowboys so he can ride the bench while collecting game checks... Lazy bum.

[Dustin]

Grigson could learn a thing or two on how to build an offensive line from the Cowboys.

[Superman]

Nope, the supplemental draft is for players who weren't in the draft. Collins was in the draft.

He's starting at guard sooooooo

[Qwiz]

The rich get richer.

I wanna vomit right now....

Grigson could learn a thing or two from alot of people.

[12isthenew18]

3/1.65m

Wow.

 

I'm sure Grigson had zero intentions of getting him anyway.

[Superman]

I hope we find out that the Cowboys told him and his agent to bomb out of the draft and they'd give him a fully guaranteed deal and extend him after two years. I hope we get a 243 page Wells report that takes at least 105 days to prove this.

Colts were scheduled to meet with Collins. The Cowboys just closed the deal before Grigson could get a chance. You know that Grigson is a closer.

If we're lucky, it will be caught on video and we can cut the report to 100 pages.

[Superman]

Tony Romo right now

It's not letting me paste the twitter clip.

 

Please go the the free agent section of the forum. You will see the info there.

Oh my. That's just downright unfair.

[UKCOLT17]

Fully guaranteed don't expect him to play good till contract year

[UKCOLT17]

Oh my. That's just downright unfair.

Yep but going to be one very expensive line eventually

[ColtsBlueFL]

Since I knew it wouldn't happen, I'm not let down.  And the team I thought would chance it, did.  Oh well...

[akcolt]

Yeah being he's a Louisiana boy NO or Dallas is where I thought he'd end up as well.

At least he's not in the AFC or even worse NE.

[CanuckColt]

Ha, ha, ha...I'm sure that Jerr is doing something 'creative' like building a big house for his mama for starters....and then on from there.

[NewColtsFan]

Wow.

 

I'm sure Grigson had zero intentions of getting him anyway.

 

Except that Collins had two appointments set up for NFL meetings.

 

The Falcons and the Colts.

 

But he decided on the Cowboys.

[dgambill]

Who wouldn't want to play there. I'm sure jerry takes real good care of his players. As o lineman that's a best case scenerio....his game will improve just playing next to those great lineman....
