Probably doing the physical.

I don't see him signing here immediately.

He's seen our offer, and I feel like it will be a very fair deal but he will want more.

My hunch is he will leave town and take some other visits and look at other offers. He came he immediately after being released, after all.

If he was happy with everything else going on here, he will give us an opportunity to match, otherwise we move on to the next option.

Team Physician: “Mr. Collins, you’re ten pounds heavier than it says on your bio. Can you explain?”

La’el Collins: “Jeff Ruby. LaRosa’s. Graeter’s. Gold Star. Frisch’s breakfast. YUM!”

He’s not leaving here without a deal. He has no visits scheduled. He’s doing a physical. He wouldn’t be doing a physical if he was going to look at other places.

You come here for the Bengals, stay for the food. Lol

Anyone else would probably be asked to leave and come back with the proper dress code. This is what happens when you have "F-You" money and are a star. I love that he's free to be himself.

Right, as we saw with Larry O, a deal is usually done pending passing a physical. If he's doing the physical, the deal is most likely in place. Not definite, but probable.

If we took him to Gold Star instead of Skyline we don’t deserve to sign him.

Malik Wright. He talks in GIFs about these things, but quote tweeted the article about being close and it was of friends Joey dressed up as a doctor. That’s pretty obviously a physical. He’s the only one I trust on this as he has been spot on at every move.

Before he was cut, and it was quiet he mentioned they were waiting for something to play out. He knows what’s going on. I don’t know how to embed tweets, but it’s embedded in the other thread about Collins.

we still talking about it. Isnt it like 10 am in cincy?

I like them both. Prefer Gold Star cheese coneys and Skyline chili spaghetti.

I mean - where’s the source saying he has other visits lined up? All I’ve seen is a couple other teams (Dolphins and Broncos) have interest. Nothing scheduled though as far as I know.

I feel Gold Star is too sweet. I mean don’t get me wrong I will eat it, but prefer Skyline.

Yeah, that’s fair. I do kinda like Gold Star’s coneys as well. But if you’re going to namedrop one of them for out-of-towners it has to be Skyline. Sponsorship deal be damned!

I never claimed he had any.  Someone claimed he was taking a physical, and that he had no other visits.  I asked for the source.  The reply was it came from...   cryptic GIFs.
