[QUOTE="Bruce, post: 47535, member: 196"] We have dedicated a great deal of ink to the young CB (Carroll) whom most of us are hoping will grow significantly and continue to develop heading into his 3rd NFL season. But here is another 22 year old (actually 12 days younger) who showed some promise as a rookie, A player I look to make big improvements heading into his sophomore season. [img]http://graphics.jsonline.com/graphics/packer/img/rev/nov05/collins1121.jpg[/img] Both these young men have qualities that are hard to find – speed to burn and a willingness to lay wood on receivers. Last season he had 63 tackles and 21 assists – not bad for a rookie safety, but I am looking for big improvement with a year under his belt and an off-season of maturation (physical, emotional, and mental) as he begins to understand and adjust to the speed of the game while learning to trust his skills. [img]http://graphics.jsonline.com/graphics/packer/img/rev/nov05/nick1121.jpg[/img] He only came up with one interception last season (see pic above) -- another area I hope to see him break out from in 2006. Collins development will be a huge key to improved play on the defensive side of the football. I know the coaches join me in having high expectations as the light bulb continues to turn on quicker – to match the pace of NFL action. [/QUOTE]
