Default Landon Collins

I thought we had a Collins thread but I couldn’t find it.

Looks like Collins is going to hit the market. He threatened to sit out the season like Bell if he was tagged. Also the Giants don’t want to pay him 11 million as a tagged player. I think he would be a good fit here at SS. Giant fans complain about his coverage but tackling is a lost art and he is often fixing mistakes made by other players on that defense. As an in box safety he is very good.

He’d be a great fit (seems like he’d be the perfect complement to Hooker) and to my knowledge he doesn’t have any red flags that would make Ballard shy away.

As a nice bonus, it’d be yet more evidence that Grigson should’ve drafted him.

I’ll believe it when I see it. He’s too good for the Giants to simply let walk. If he somehow is available, Ballard should jump into that market quickly.

Do we play enough single-high to warrant signing Collins? He seems to be a good box safety that struggles in coverage.

I hope Reich and Erberflus are good enough and smart enough coaches to adapt to good players.

I asked in another thread about Big Nickle. Could he be in the box with 2 FS or how do we run that?

2FS 1 SS. or 1FS AND 2 SS?
