John from Riverside Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I just love that Rex Ryan few down and met with the kid and his family...... Then Miami shoots the counter volley.....lol This is really funny. Omar Kelly should just shut his trap after embarrising himself in the Clay drama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Man this thread has really come to a screeching halt as he visits the Dolphins. Hopefully, the meeting with Rex will resonate and he will head from South Florida to Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I do have to laugh at the silly rule that he technically can't be recruited for 4 more days But can be spoken to somewhere not his home or old school and how Rex exploited it.

EmotionallyUnstable Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I hope Rec offers him a chance at (right) Tackle. Better money in the long run and would be extremely beneficial for our o line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchmurraydowntown Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 i didn't see that -he went back to miami on the jet? No a few players went up to visit him on Miami's behalf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) i didn't see that -he went back to miami on the jet?My badLet Seattle or NE have him.Yeah, we could only hope that New England would acquire a top 15 talent for a league minimum salary. That is DEFINITELY in our best interest!! Edited May 5, 2015 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 If the Bills do not get him, I hope he signs with Edmonton. Oh wait, that was McDavid. Seriously, it would suck if he went to another AFC East team. If he does not sign with the Bills, I hope he goes to the NFC. As an aside, I really do not understand some of the bitching and moaning by some in our "stellar" Buffalo media. The guy is not guilt of anything right now. He may be, but it is looking more and more like the police do not think he had anything to do with this terrible tragedy. If he had nothing to do with it, Collins is a victim (obviously to a much lesser extent) as well. This past weekend should have been the most exciting time in his (and his family's life). It was all taken away from him. I give the Bills credit for being proactive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Collins met with Buffalo coach Rex Ryan in a Baton Rouge restaurant on Monday night. Ryan was reportedly in the area and did not contact Collins’ agent. It was an unsanctioned meeting. ESPN’s Mike Rodak reported this morning that “It remains unlikely — despite Rex’s dinner — that the Bills sign La’el Collins.” Edited May 5, 2015 by Lurker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What a Tuel Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) http://miamiherald.typepad.com/sports-buzz/2015/05/tuesday-update-fins-meeting-with-collins-dolphins-auditioning-sec-quarterback.html Bills coach Rex Ryan met with Collins at a Baton Rouge restaurant on Monday night, but the NFL said teams cannot meet with players who were eligible for the 2015 draft at their campus or residence if the player has withdrawn from school (Collins did not enroll at LSU for the spring semester and the NFL told LSU it considers that withdrawing, according to LSU's sports information director) and if the school’s final exams have not concluded. LSU’s final exams conclude on Saturday. Asked whether a player would be permitted to meet with a team at a restaurant, NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said players "would not be able to meet at a restaurant in the player's city." So does that mean Ryan violated an NFL rule? The league declined to comment. I don't know where that quote from Brian McCarthy came from, because it was not in the original PFF article, but curious none the less. The rule states home or college campus. And of course ESPN is quoted as "ruling the Bills out" because of Rodak. So damn annoying. Edited May 5, 2015 by What a Tuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
