Something tells me in 2 years he is going to be even happier than he is now.

This deal gets him whole.......his next deal gets him PAID

This deal gets him whole.......his next deal gets him PAID

Now he needs to contribute as an early rounder, would love to see him regularly dominate on game days

I know quite a bit of you don't like Jerry - blaming him for just about everything wrong with the Cowboys. But if it weren't for Jerry's business acumen and being able to get players to sign the dotted line, Lael Collins would not be a Cowboy. Remember, we weren't even on his radar until Jerry came into the picture and invited him and his mom over for diner.

This guy has done what Dallas has asked him to do and done it well.

Now he's at RT where I think he & Martin will open runways for the RBs.

Jerry gave him his word and lived up to it

Reports indicate he is a beast at RT.

Collins will become a outstanding Cowboy.

Best Ol since the 90's Cowboys !!!

I'm good with this contract.

He'll get paid somewhere else when it's up. But it gives us time to draft his replacement.

 

[Teague31]

If only they had put him at RT two years ago....

Pretty much confirms we chose LCollins over Leary in every way and we wasted too much time on Free

Watching him toy around with Taco like a cat with a doodle bug suggest as much...

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Wow I thought he broke down. lol I think he's going to be great.

Lol. Hardly. The importance of the trench is vital. Our cap situation is improving, especially over the next couple seasons. Not to mention, this is Jerry's guy. Jerry brought him in "almost" single-handily by himself.

Collins will go down as Jerry's guy if this all works out.

Jerry didn't get his Manziel, but he helped get his Collins!

A good move that was made quickly after the draft

A good move that was made quickly after the draft

It was a supreme move many thought wasn't happening. Collins reminds me of a lighter Larry Allen with an Eric Williams/Mark Columbo mean-streak.
