Only thing Collins did well last year is get beat by Bosa and shoved him into his own man for a concussion knocking him out of the playoff game.

We have an immediate need at left guard. A natural position for Collins , yet they cut him.

Not even Jerry could put up with that POS any longer. And Jerry has put up with some of the biggest losers I have ever seen.

Wait until the Bengals have to pay Burrow........their owner, Brown is similar to Stephen, hate huge contracts. How much do you think he's worth 2 years from now?

This. He wants to play tackle. Probably because tackles get paid more. It's not like he was all-pro when we were playing him at guard anyway.

If/when he excels, you will have your confirmation that this organization is toxic and is where players come to end their careers

And if he makes the Pro Bowl roster next season and his team is in the SB what will you say then?

Dam, can't believe we just let a starting caliber RT on a reasonable deal just walk and got nothing in return.
Good move for the Bengals, their RT was literally the worst in the league last year. If Collins is 50% of what he used to be here, it will be an upgrade for them.

the issue is he was giving 50% effort in games and practice. Then his lazy weird habits off the field with the drug tests and attempted Bribes. Car wrecks, surgery, unwillingness to go to LG . This was 100% his own making/fault. He's immature. The Joneses are boneheads, but pertaining to LC, this I will defend them. This was on LC. He's no victim.

He's on a legit SB contender now, a team that quickly built themselves into a SB, while we're still 25+ years away from
even a NFC conference title game.
Those type teams seem to know how to add and build around while we'll be making all of the excuses why we should move on from him, instead of
why we should keep him.
