The Green Bay Packers will not meet with FS Nick Collins (neck) to determine his future until after the NFL Draft, according to his agent, Alan Herman. Collins hasn't received all the medical advice he needs to make a decision about whether to continue playing football following the single-fusion surgery on his neck last September. 'All the opinions aren't in, and I think he's getting another opinion,' Herman said. 'That doctor was not available. He was on vacation, so I'm hopeful soon. But I think he's got another meeting with one of the doctors.'
