If I was him I wouldn't sign until I was proven not guilty and then I would sign to the highest bidder.

Who doubts he could get 3-4 Million a year?

We would have to pay him all our UDFA budget surely
Unless he agrees low signing bonus knowing he gets a good roster bonus next year

Hope we are on the phone now
IF YOU ARE CLEARED,WE WILL GIVE YOU THE GOOD MONEY

I don't think that's the case. He can only sign for a minimal annual salary contract and the only difference from one teams offer to another would be the signing bonus... which is capped. La'el Collins is a very unique case. If he's found innocent of any wrongdoing, he got screwed royally. I'd file a grievance against the league and bring the case in front of an arbitrator. I'm very intrigued at how that could turn out. He could be stuck like chuck, be allowed to re-enter the draft, or declared a free agent. I'm sure his agent and legal team are looking at all the possibilities... should make for an interesting case study.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.

#Saints GM Mickey Loomis said Jeff Ireland was a strong voice of reason since Loomis, Sean Payton usually more aggressive about trading.
