I was thinking the same thing.


Mills is probably the better CB, but Collins has the higher ceiling IMO with his length and range. Even if Mills has the better college career, Collins will still get picked before Mills

Didn't some all-star selection mix up the 2 Jalens last year? Picked Collins over Mills?



yeah, the freshman all SEC team. I honestly think our sports info dept submitted the wrong name. Mills stats were way better than Collins.

as a pro prospect, I actually thought Collins might be better or at least on equal footing since I thought he was a better cover guy and taller (I never thought Mills was the 6'0" he was listed at last yr, let alone the 6'1" they have him at now). I've liked what I've seen out of Mills here lately in coverage though against Arky and TCU (Clemson not so much... but that was because Hopkins was abusing anyone we put on him).

While we haven't done this lately, Minter should be a good one in the pros and I have high hopes for those currently on the roster.



I meant to say consistently. I think Minter will be really good in the pros, but even guys like Kelvin Sheppard haven't exactly lit it up at the next level.

No, I feel you. Talent at LB has been lacking, particularly when compared to what we've had on the DL and DB... hopefully Minter will help bring around the 180 and we can have an equally impressive track record in future years.

Our LB's for the most part won't succeed at the next level because of size. Look at the weight of the LB's we have. I don't think anyone is over 225 with the exception of Welker. Chief prefers the smaller guys that have speed. I am not saying we won't have any guys succeed just not at the level we see for the DL and CB's.

He said in the write up for the saints pick that Curtis Lofton was disappointing, when he was by far the team's best LB.

I think Collins will be a better pro. He is longer and a real ball hawk. Mills reminds me of Revis. A true technician at his posistion
