"Who" though, is what I would wonder ... would he have a case vs the NFL for not allowing him to remove himself from the draft? The 32 teams that didn't draft him?

He isn't being accused of anything, just a person of interest, et ... while there is a certain amount of injustice in the whole situation should no involvement on his part be found, who could he legally blame for his fall from grace?

lets see you lose millions so your you want to sue for million. lawyers will be coming out of the wood work like cockroaches. I would not be surprised if a few already have a plan of attack already laid out.

if lawyers can get a criminal money for injuries received while committing a crime due to the victims negligence then i am sure they are looking into this one. people wonder why this country is so screwed up.

This is the type of a case a lawyer can make a name for themselves

Yeah, but I'm just wondering who he can really go after ... he had already committed to the draft, hasn't been charged with anything, so why should the NFL excuse/remove him from his commitment just because his stock drops? I don't see a case there, it's just business & the NFL didn't do anything to cause his decline in value.

The 32 NFL teams that did not draft him cannot be found culpable ... what did they do other than avoid him for possible future legal issues?

The police for investigating him and/or naming him a person-of-interest in his baby-mama's murder? IDK if there would be a case there either ... they're just doing their job as part of a murder investigation.

It's kinda' an odd situation and maybe the NFL is erring on the side of caution, but in today's NFL climate, they sorta' have to, IMO.

Just one of those situations the guy is gonna' have live through ... at least there's some light at the end of the tunnel in that there will still be some lucrative NFL contracts and an NFL career available to him when it's all cleared up.

But yeah, I agree, ... if there's a way for an attorney to build a case outta' this one, they're undoubtedly working on it as we speak, .

He will not have a case
Teams were free to select him and they didn't. Also the agents,We will not sign a contract if its not in the first four rounds has killed any lawsuit.

He wasn't legible for next years draft and had he been allowed to enter the supplemental draft every player after him with a legal issue pre draft would have appealed any conviction and asked to be moved to the supplment draft to manipulate were they go

Only recourse for La'el Collins that I could see so far would be to prove collusion, and that would be impossible to prove without communications (i.e. emails) or multiple witnesses...

The other would be to somehow find evidence that either someone from the league office or an agent(s) from one or more of the 32 NFL franchises conspired with the police and press to release the damaging press release of his person of interest connection to the murder of the young mother and infant.

The silver lining for him is that he will be a free agent faster than most; and with that talent he could get a max contract earlier in his career...

But it's hard to label him a victim when a young mother and her child are dead.

Ok, those make sense. The whole timing of the thing is kind of suspicious, I can see collusion and I luv me a good conspiracy, .
