Quote:I said free safety. Collins is a strong safety and will stay there in the NFL.

Quote:<b>STRENGTHS:</b> Collins is a well built athlete with light feet and fluid hips to change direction quickly. He's a forceful and reliable open-field tackler who often rips at the ball aggressively as he's taking opponents to the ground.

<p style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:'proxima-nova', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He has seen action at both strong and free safety and projects as a first-round pick in large part because he should be able to handle either role at the next level.

<p style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:'proxima-nova', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>WEAKNESSES:</b> Collins' inexperience (and inconsistency at cornerback) led to some uncharacteristic lapses in coverage for the Tide in 2013. Needs to prove instincts.
