Twitter: La'el Collins cleared to practice

[CowboyRoy]

Dumbest move of the off-season.

Getting rid of Collins was one of the better moves of the offseason. Addition by subtraction. Cap savings and chemistry over the next few years. Steele cant do any worse that Collins did last year. Heck what has Collins done the last 2 years?

 

[CoachD]

Um is this the Cowboys zone or the Bengals zone???

 

[Blackrain]

Lael Collins is garbage. So is Randy Gregory.

I wish they would stop drafting trash like this going forward altogether.

I couldn't agree more I just wonder who is the person that assesses the character of these draft picks.
I got to believe it's Jerry and he misjudges a lot of these guys and they stick it to him

He can absolutely do worse. We'll see how good a move it was this year.

La'el as talented as he is... you cannot trust him.. guy would rather go fishing than practise and that is just facts... i'd rather have a less talented RT who will be the last out of the building than a player who is supposed to be an enforcer, enforcing the drug test personnel to take a bribe

 

[stinkface]

Not sure why this is even under discussion. He is not playing for us.

Doubtful. Collins didn’t play for last year and a half. Oline was better with Steele at RT last year.

 

[Calvin2Tony2Emmitt2Julius]

It was a dumb move. He is still one of the best route runners in football. Ceedee won't be able to shake the double team that Cooper gets.

And you know this How ????? Because you love Cooper and his sub 900 yards ?????? Cooper was declining, we decided he wasn't worth the price tag. The same people will cry about paying Dak advocated over paying Amari

Rings a bit hollow don't ya think

 

[Ranching]

So what? Just fishing for likes?

 

[Pass2Run]

Yawn.

Slow day. Woke up late. Still trying to clear out the cobwebs.

Who's this feller we're talking about again?

 

[Bates]

Perfect timing with the "Steele concerns" thread.

Let the Rueage begin

Dumbest move of the off-season.

Played out of position here and will be one of the best G in the AFC protecting one of the new STUD QB in the NFL!

LOL. Think this is the first 5 of 6 replies to this thread. A who's who. Like a signal was sent out.

Disagree, but whatever. We'll see.

 

[Creeper]

Here is some perspective from the team he now plays for:

And for people wondering why we are discussing Collins in this forum, it is because it was a controversial move by the Cowboys and if Steele falters during the season this will become a hot topic indeed.

 

[Ranching]

Why is this on the fan zone? I didn't think he still played for the Cowboys.....favoritism?

 

[GINeric]

right up there with trading Cooper

So trading a high priced wr who disappears during away games and big games, and withers away in the first quarter when playing against top 10 cornerbacks who clamp him down???

Thats a dumb move??? Well im glad we were dumb enough to part ways with a receiver that even the RAIDERS couldn't use...

Cooper didn't throw the ball to himself, a guy named Dak did that, and I've seen boat loads of tape of Cooper wide open yet Dak was throwing somewhere else......Raiders was coached by who again, oh yeah the Clown who was fired and out of the league that many Cowboy fans wanted Jerry to Hire, Gruden

 

[Longboysfan]

Easy to say we will see another high round pick next year on O line.

 

[CowboyRoy]

It’s a fact. That isn’t debatable.

 

[Denim Chicken]

It's not and it is. Don't act like Collins / Steele were the only moving pieces of this OL last year.

The line played better when Steele was at rt and Collins was suspended. That’s a fact.
