Debatable that he is even the top safety anymore. Big time liability in coverage and really just a box safety to me. Rather we wait and address the position in the 3rd with someone like Sample or Tartt if he's available. Collins' stock has been falling as of late and will honestly probably be available at 25 but I don't want him there.

Safety is where I want to go if we do go defense early on, I just desperately want to give Cam another weapon or protection up front in the first and second. Yeah, I'll probably be disappointed if we go heavy on the defensive side again but I do trust Gettleman. I just don't love what I've seen from Collins as a first round safety.

We've been fortunate enough the past two years to get great prospects at need areas who took mystical offseason tumbles thanks to the usual offseason draft nonsense. It'd be great if could happen a third.

Though frankly with Polomalu gone I think that's probably a likely landing spot for him.

Collins just reminds me so much of Barron....and that scares me.

I think Collins is the better athlete but they both share lots of similarities. Rivera has wanted his big time safety for so long but I don't want to force the issue at Cam and the offense's expense. It's time we get serious about building around our franchise quarterback. It's been long enough. Give the kid what he needs to take the next step.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      I'd rather get a vet to fill XL's spot for a chain mover and give Jimmy Horn more reps since he's basically our Ted Ginn speed guy. T-Mac and Coker are locked in as the top 2. They honestly fuged up giving XL the start over Moore in the playoff game

      XL is a Lost Cause

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.
