PI's don't cost all that much.

If Collins is the father then hiring a PI makes sense. Even being an X that is the mother to your child. If this is the case it says a lot about him as a person.

time will tell

You hire one because this story is affecting your draft stock. Going from the top half of the first round to the lower half or later means a lot of money.

You are quite right sir. I don't think this woman's family is concerned with Collins' draft stock right now. Prayers for them and the, now, motherless child.

Is there a point snyone would take a punt?

I personally would at the tail end of tbe third before the comp picks let Baltimore snap him up

Him not talking to cops until after the draft certainly complicate things. Originally I didn't think it would hurt his draft stock, but now, given teams don't have anything but Collins' word to go on, I'd probably also pass on taking him early... which is a shame as that's who I really wanted. With that said, I'd still take a chance on him with our 3rd pick.

Its difficult
I always like to look at people as innocent until proven guilty. He is the sort of player we need.

Its just finding the sweetspot that you can select him. Then het a contract that voids all guaranteed money if he is charged with the crime.

I'll take him at 13! Everyone has done their home work and this is strictly a questioning to determine parenthood. Grab him and don't look back.
