The always-intriguing AFC East currently has gotten even more interesting.

With former LSU offensive lineman La’el Collins undrafted in the wake of a double-murder investigation for which he isn’t a suspect but hasn’t been fully exonerated, two teams in the AFC East are actively pursuing Collins.

Via Ben Wallace of the New Orleans Advocate, the Bills and Dolphins have scheduled meetings with Collins. A league source tells PFT that Bills coach Rex Ryan has traveled to Baton Rouge to visit Collins. Ryan is particularly interested in converting Collins to guard.

Other teams remain on the fence about Collins, erring on the side of shying away from him until he receives unequivocal clearance. But as with any other player, 31 teams can shout “no”; it only takes one to whisper “yes.” With two teams in the AFC East interested, that “yes” could be a lot louder than that.
