Falcons fan here. So what's the deal with this guy? I was thrilled with Beasley and coleman, but I know very little about Collins. Personally, I would have liked Gregory, Perryman or kendricks. But then again, this guy has the measurables.

He was one of our more improved players last year. He has some technique issues but good measurables. That said, he wouldnt have even been guarding Cooper if our best or second best corner wasn't suspended the day of the Bama game.

First off, don't listen to anyone here about Collins, except for LSU fans.
He's a pretty solid corner though. The only reason he struggled getting starts at LSU is because we have very good corners. He struggled a little with not having enough aggression early on but improved a lot on his tackling by last season. He doesn't track the ball very well in the air, and he's a little stiff in the hips.
He'll never be an elite corner, but he'd do very well in a zone scheme.
