Agent Alan Herman is confident that he can get a lucrative long-term contract from the Green Bay Packers for safety Nick Collins, a restricted free agent. In fact, Herman used the word "optimistic" five times regarding Collins, who is coming off back-to-back Pro Bowl seasons in which he intercepted 13 passes. "I think it's Nick's time," Herman said at the National Football League scouting combine. "What more can he possibly do to prove himself? I think once we get past this combine situation and go in and talk to them, I'm optimistic that this is going to be resolved." Source: Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel
