    Many acquisitions don't work out.  Is this another one?

    The lowest-rated PFF starter on our defense this season after 6 games... Jamie Collins, 34.6.

    To paraphrase the Sopranos... There's good and there's not good -- and that's not good.

      Eh, he's been a good football player for a long time and missed several games with a concussion. I'm not worried yet-he would have gotten a very similar contract from a lot of teams in the NFL.

          It was a no brainer signing. If the Browns hadn’t resigned him you would’ve been all: “wtf, just letting one of their only good players get away, when will the browns hold onto the talent they acquire?!”

            Jamie Collins has been decent for us... I can't complain too much about him.. So far.. You could probably say that him and JT are the most consistent performance wise .

                He's a free-lancer whose free-lancing has been green-lighted by his DC... going to be booms and busts. Until he settles in, much as was the case with Ogletree in StL/LA.

                Can't minimize the concussion bit. Must have been a doozy given the time missed... has to give some pause upon return. But if he stays "clear-headed" for a game or two, he should start playing with abandon again.

                      I'd advise tape-eaters to view early in the game when Collins seems to get rocked again about 6 mins.? in 1st quarter..shakes his head around but stayed on field..can ya really blame a guy that gets no FS nor S (-25 yards off) help covering TE's or 2 TE's at times?(time after time again)

                        I saw a player do that in the MNF game... may have been Henry... said to the wife, "that's one of those little bell-rings that accumulate over a career". The player was not attended to...

                            The same people complaining that we did re-sign Collins here are many of the same people who complain that we didn’t re-sign Schwartz or Mack or Gabriel.

                            Funny how you can never be wrong as long as you wait to say something until after the fact...

                                I have high hopes for collins as a 4-3 blitzing olb'er that comes out of nowhere. If garrett plays well and we pick up a competent LDE, collins will essentially be unblockable rushing in conjunction with good DE's

                                      This thread is much better as a discussion about the Sopranos.

                                        Unfortunately true about many of the 0-Fer BROWNS chat anymore,  hmmmm Sopranos thread we should look into that.

                                          I have high hopes for collins as a 4-3 blitzing olb'er that comes out of nowhere. If garrett plays well and we pick up a competent LDE, collins will essentially be unblockable rushing in conjunction with good DE's

                                          Lately I've been envisioning Collins at MLB with a fresh-faced, rookie OLB to his right and Kirk to his left.
