Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t object to his signing at all.  I certainly wouldn’t give up our 1st and 2nd round picks for him. And there are other ways to greatly improve the pass protection of the OL (read IOL).

I dont disagree, and Jensen is a perfect example. I will say this past year wasnt Collins best, yet it far surpasses our guys by a long shot. The guy is very good, but more importantly his contract is unbelievable team friendly to the point we could add that 3rd guy on the line.


As to draft picks who at #31 or later would have a greater impact this season and next more than Collins?  Thanks in advance.
