La’el Collins is now a member of the best offensive line in football, but can they can become an all-time great group?
The Cowboys signed tackle La’El Collins as an undrafted free agent on Thursday, in what can be described as the biggest post draft signing history.

He was a potential first-round pick who went undrafted last week after the murder of an ex-girlfriend. The Cowboys surprisingly played this one close to the vest, monitoring Collins from afar.
La’el explained why he chose Dallas.
Collins: "I got a call from Mr. Jones a couple nights ago, & we had a long talk … First time I thought someone had seen me for who I am."

The big fella then fired a shot that all of the Cowboys opponents will address at some point.
Collins: "This is going to be the best offensive line in NFL history. Mark my words."
