I was surprised to hear Sharper call him "The gambler". I never thought of Collins as a constant risk taker.
Collins has certainly improved significantly since we drafted him. I remember his first few years he had total hands of stone. He couldn't catch a pass to save his life. Now, he is one of the best ballhawks in the entire league. I think playing alongside Woodson really helped him(same for Tramon).
And BTW, Collins was seriously screwed over on the NFLs top 100 players list. 96? At the very best, the players rated him the 5th best safety behind Reed, Troy, Rolle, Wilson and Berry. Antrel Rolle ranked ahead of him over 30 spots on the countdown.
