It would be awesome if this guy somehow recovers to his previous form and solidifies our line. The rest of the league would hate us.

I wonder if this means Collins isn't ready...?

Or that he's moving to RT, nah....

Reported inany places that this has nothing to do with Collins. Depth move for the future

 

[dagreat1_87]

you gotta wonder if we would be willing to try collins at tackle if cooper ends up working out for us

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Must have been a good workout. Guessing he takes recently signed Ryan Seymour spot.

 

[Carson]

Apples to oranges, but I see a lot of Marc Colombo.

Former first rounder, often injured and flaked out.

Perfect chance to resurrect his career with the best offensive line in football.

Good pickup.

that's what it looks like to me too

I agree. Collins back is gonna be fun for our depth and where they play him.

Good signing but I hope it's for 2 years at least.

 

[mooseq]

My wife went to high school with him and she knows him!

 

[Beast_from_East]

Yea, hopefully its not a 1 year show me deal.

 

[reddyuta]

I just realized that if we draft a RT next year in the first rd then we will have 4 first rd olinemen and all 5 if you include Collins.

 

[Cowboys22]

I read the workout went very well. No doubt it's a multi year deal. There would be no real point in signing him just for the playoffs. Dallas is where he always wanted to be so hopefully it will light a fire under him. I guess there's always a chance that they have decided to bring Tapper back instead of Collins if they know Gregory will be suspended.

 

[Gaede]

Man, if Cooper gets back to form, what a steal!

Perfect fit for our offense as well

Collins gets a 21 day practice window. They can activate him at anytime. So this is an insurance move. Get that extra OL, and then see how collins does. They may not need him, or want even more OL.

Mo is back, so I bet that Leon McFadden gets cut to may room.

Good point

Agreed. I'm very excited about this move.
