Pats players agree: Collins is a freak

“Yeah, he’s freakish, he’s really freakish,” cornerback Darrelle Revis said. “It’s crazy some of the stuff he does at practice and even in the games sometimes. He’s always making plays, and he’s always around the ball. Probably could play safety, man. If he had that opportunity to play, because he’s so versatile, and he’s fast — he’s not slow. He can run. I definitely agree with all the other guys. He’s probably the most freakish athlete I’ve been around in recent years, yeah.”

“Well, of course everyone talks about his athleticism, but his knowledge of the defense is up there,” linebacker Jonathan Casillas said. “He can talk the game along with the best of the best — you know, the Hightowers and the McCourtys of the world. His football IQ is pretty high. People always talk about his athleticism, which is pretty evident, but his football IQ is up there too.”

Its just too bad we wasted our pick on this guy because we all knew LB wasnt a need and he is only a sub LB who cant play on 1st or 2nd down

From Darrelle Revis:



That says a lot, for me. But I also liked this bit, from Jonathan Casillas:



Freakish athletiicsm + high football IQ + work ethic = potential for greatness.

Not bad for a guy who iampatsfan labeled the slowest LB in the NFL. BTW, has anyone seen iampatsfan for the last three months?
