We sooo should of went with Collins.Also should of signed Incognito Like I suggested at the time everyone on here was saying I was crazy then also.Move over John I will make future decisions on O lineman pal.

Ray was well and truly a Denver Bronco by the time we could of had Collins.
I think you should all erase the Ray comparison and insert the Max Garcia comparison cause that's who we got with the same type of mid round pick. To me hindsight doesn't play so much of a part cause NFL scouts knew La'el was plenty talented and well placed sources said La'el had nothing to worry about with the police issue at the time of the NFL draft.He was one I really wanted at the time(and now).
But there's no point in looking back on it. It was almost two years ago, it's long since passed.

Remember he hadn't talked to police yet and the police wanted to talk to him about said murder. That's a pretty big red flag. If Denver drafted him and he had been involved then everyone is criticizing them for drafting a murderer. And every single team passed on him multiple times.

My point is La'el Collins and Richie Incognito both seemed to be obvious pick ups to me that we should of got La'el Collins very cheaply and also Richie Incognito at the time would of cost us nothing.They were two players we could of picked up and would of cost us not much more than a buck'o five.They were obvious pickups that screamed out but yet broncos chose some duds instead.We need big and mean on our O line.If it means switching schemes so be it.

Sorry dude.Meant no disrespect.I really enjoy your posts.He is on IR but he along with Incognito who I also pushed for would of done wonders to this O line.Both would have cost us nothing also.

Joe Thomas for Shaq Barrett and a 1st sounds pretty good right now too.
Hindsight I guess
