Re: Veteran G Jahri Evans wasn't taking paycut from Saints
Cant blame anyone for not touching Collins. His name was in a murder rap,even if he wasn't a suspect. His agent was also saying he might not sign with anyone if he wasn't a first or second round pick. I think there was a deal in place with Dallas if he wasn't selected in the 1/2 round.

Give it a rest. They passed on him just like 31 other teams did. They did what they had to do.

Rumor has it Collins told teams not to draft him after the domestic filed. He knew he was going late and wanted to pick his team.

Even after kicking the tires and seeing what was in the tank? No hometown discount? Just more proof he trusts in Spags!!

Re: Veteran G Jahri Evans wasn't taking paycut from Saints
We knew (or should've known) we need a Guard or Guards. Wish we'd selected Jackson (FL State) with 1 of our 3rd round picks AND Collins in th 7th.
7th normally worth a gamble. Even if Collins sat out grumpy this year we'd have his rights for years. Lesson learned, I hope. |

He said he wanted to get out of Louisiana. We did talk to his agent, and was told that. His agent said if he wasn't selected in round 1, he'd sit out until next season's draft.
