Peppers had moments  
nygiants16 : 10/3/2022 11:32 am : link
but he got burned a lot, he was fine going straight ahead and staying in the box but he wasnt some star..

Collins was a difference maker on a playoff team, is collins the best in coverage? absolutely not but he was elite in his role in the box
No

harm in taking a look. As Eric said, teams bring in players every week, and his visit was apparently scheduled before all of our injuries yesterday. I expect that at least one player injured yesterday will go on IR.
Bottom line

Peppers is a tremendous athlete but a bad football player. That athletic ability occasionally allowed him to make flashy plays, but on a consistent basis over many plays, he was not good. Bad in coverage, terrible tackler. He was pretty good on the blitz and could hit, that's about it.
No doubt that NFL teams work out players

on the regular.

BUT this feels different after watching Sunday's game.

The Giants are going to struggle to find players period to fill out the roster at certain positions IF the majority of injuries from Sunday keep players out of the lineup for London or moving forward.

This Giants team, like everyone other one for the past decade seems to be snake bit from injury stand point.
Collins Was Never As Good

As his reputation. 1 big season of ints that he could never repeat. He couldn’t cover TE’s 5 yrs ago, he won’t be able to cover them now. Pass.
Jefferson wasn't inactive  
WillieYoung : 10/3/2022 12:50 pm : link
He's on the practice squad and didn't get one of the two call ups. He has already been activated at least twice and can only be activated three times without being elevated to active roster.
No one could sniff out a screen like Collins  
Vanzetti : 10/3/2022 12:58 pm : link
You couldn't run one against him because he always managed to shoot between the OL before they got in position.

OTOH, because he was always looking into the backfield, he got burned on some deep routes.

But I think Wink will know how to use him. Its amazing how he plays to a guy's strength.
No thanks

But that is just me
I think at this point.....if Collins walks into the stadium today

without a limp, we need to sign him!

Damn straight...

Just don't have him walk across the MetLife turf to sign the deal :)
His last year in WFT  
Now Mike in MD : 10/3/2022 4:20 pm : link
he shifted to LB and pparently played well in that role, although it is difficult to tell how accurate that is because the WFT media is so sychophantic.

But considering he played LB, I would guess the Giants brought him in with the ide of him playing LB and not safety.
