Alex Collins value

[hjernazian]

Thoughts? The DLF podcasts are pretty firm and consistent in BAL not drafting a RB high with competition from K Dixon. I was thinking a future second or third?

I would Want a late 1st if I owned Him. I would Be willing to give up a 2nd to acquire him

[kilgorextrout]

Your valuation seems about right. Owners may be hesitant to sell him for that though given the handful of great games down the stretch last season and Dixon’s health.

A 3rd would be laughable. Yes he isn't guaranteed anything, but he played legitimately very well last season and as of now it's mostly his backfield.

Baltimore has plenty of holes so I doubt they take a RB early in the draft. They might sign D. Murray or something, which would be frustrating.

I agree, a third and probably even a 2nd wouldn't be enough to buy him. I'm not even that high on him, but I'd want a late 1st or very early 2nd if I'm selling. Would buy for a mid 2nd.

Thanks. See it as too much of a risk to offer up a first thought TBH, I think I can get a much better player for that.

Anyone you guys see in my sig that would make sense for a swap? He hates Sammy, and wouldn’t go for a package if TyMontg and Powell as he has about 8-9 backs all within the RB2/flex range. But he does have Shady and Zeeke so thinking he has less need for Collins.

2019 2nd?

I wouldn't move him unless it's a late first. If he maintains the job which seems like there is a good chance, he's as valuable as any other RB you would take in that range.

What I’m thinking. A bit apprehensive cause starting in 2019 we have to have a rookie starter, and I don’t have my first. I figure I can always acquire another second before then.

[Nightmares]

How about Rudolph?

How about Rudolph?

He’s pretty deep at TE. Second only to me.

I thought this too until I looked at RB rankings recently.

I see little chance for him to be a top 15 RB in value.. In production? Perhaps.

Gurley
Zeke
Bell
DJ
Kamara
Fournette
Hunt
Dalvin
Mixon
CMC
MelGo
Freeman
Derrick Henry

Plus 5 RB rookies, plus guys like McKinnon and Drake.

I would not spend any first on Collins. At most, a future second makes sense to me. I'd rather couple a first rounder with something else and go get any of those other RBs.

[The Red Rooster]

If these prices are what it costs to get Collins, I would wait until after the draft to see if the Ravens draft anyone and torpedo his value. Even if the Ravens don't draft a single RB, his value won't be much higher than what I'm seeing in this thread.

0- value hes about to be RIP with this rookie rb class coming in, Id offer a 3rd but then id rather a pick at a defense week 1 instead off the waiver
