The 2015 NFL (criminal) Draft saga continues

Maybe we need to trade all our picks for 2016 selections???

Because either his agent has fronted him money or banks will take the risk since they know what he's about to be worth

why would you hire one if you had nothing to do with it and are not a suspect, that is raising a red flag for me.....

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.

Advances from his agent most likely. Gifts, money from endorsements, family, etc. as well. How do you think all these athletes are all blinged out and in fancy attire prior to signing a contract?

Just my 2 cents, but, I think when it gets this close to the draft, teams look for a reason NOT to draft a guy. Something to justify to themselves, and maybe fans, picking another player. This could offer teams that justification even though it may turn out to be nothing other than he happened to date someone who was murdered later.

I concur.

Is he or his family in poverty?

PI's don't cost all that much.

Not good.

All these players involved in questionable activities its quite the indictment on our society. Only one post mentioned the poor woman that lost her life. Another child orphaned. I wonder if Collins is the father? Crummy timing if he is not Involed.

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.
