LB Jamie Collins

Collins has been a polarizing player in the league. He had a great run in New England early in his career, only to be shipped out of town by Bill Belichick for freelancing a little too much. He did not play all that well in Cleveland. He, ultimately, ended up back in New England and played very much like he did early on in his career.

He’s a fast, physical linebacker capable of playing both the pass and the run. I’d like to see a little more when he blitzes, but he can be a stabilizing force for a position group in dire need of an upgrade. At a clear position of need, Collins could make a huge impact and provide the Raiders more options in the early rounds of the draft.
