Alex Collins valuation

Postby giveahoot » Sun Apr 29, 2018 12:25 pm

What are people doing with Alex Collins. One of the clear winners of the draft - just got an offer for him

Give: Alex Collins
Get 2.05 & 2.09

On paper that seems like the pick side - but after doing research I'm becoming more bullish on him. The RB's that have a 920 yard rushing season under their belt by age 23 have a good chance of remaining relevant. If he keeps the starting job this offseason I feel like he could be a solid long-term contributor.

Thoughts?

I would hang on to Collins. There is some risk that Kenneth Dixon might rebound healthy so monitor that in preseason and if you feel Dixon is coming on strong hope your trade partner hasn't noticed and then do the deal then.

Yeah I think with them not getting a rb at all Collins has a good shot at that job. I dont think they love dixon as much anymore there has been alot of issues with him. I think Collins has alot of upside and I wouldn't take anything less then a 1st rd + for him

I'm holding my Collins share. There is still a Murray/CJA shadow over the backfields that were not unduly affect by the draft ..... But some think both are no longer effective or fantasy relevent.

I own Collins as well and am bullish. He has some decent upside and could develop a limited 3rd down role. IMO.
I would not trade him for anything less than a high first +. Next year he could be running with Lamar Jackson at QB. He will have some huge holes if he holds onto the job.

It's easily Collins. His value went up over the weekend. He's now a 1.6-1.9 value. If you're worried about Dixon, simply draft him in the 3rd or later or work out a trade for something in that range.
