Twitter: Bengals locking up Collins?

Our former offensive line coach Frank Pollack is there, make sense.

I posted in the 'Collins Released' thread that a team would have signed him within 24 hrs.
I supposed interested teams were concerned about the hip injury- surgery = the lack of pursuit.
AFC Champs did due diligence; bringing the former Cowboys stalwart in to protect Burrows for another deep playoff run.

They need OL. Everybody knows that.

Collins now closer to a SB than his former teammates are.

Surprised it didn't get done 3 days ago......

I think Cincy still needs more help along the line. If they think Ted Karras, Alex Cappa and Collins are going to keep Burrows safe.......boy are they in for an awakening.

doubt it.
that division just got a little tougher.

Do we get a comp pick next year if he signs a big deal? I can’t remember if teams do if they cut a player.

So does Dallas, haha.

The bengals are a decent oline from being a real super bowl threat
They could have won that game had they had just a decent oline

Nope. Doesn’t work for cut players

Nope

Thanks. Now cutting him stinks even more.

Good signing. Collins had his issues but I struggle to see how a team with the OL problems we have wasn’t better with him at OT or LG. I just don’t think the cap savings outweighed the player even with his warts. Cincy with a good OL could really be something and Collins would be the 3rd OL they signed this off-season. Now that’s a team that is trying to better themselves through free agency.

apparently we don’t LOL

starting RT on a 10 million contract and we cut him. Epitome of stupidity

but we weren't better when he was here.
the one we really miss is frederick.
but even with collins...post frederick...we have not been a good oline.
collins hasn't been the same guy since his contract extension.
someone or something cut in on him.

Collins was a stalwart 4 of his first 5 seasons.
Martin will be in the club of legendary Cowboys OLinemen.
