Greggggg really went the way of the dinosaurs. Not sure how he stuck around after bountygate

When he was healthy, he was one of the best tacklers on our team. He certainly would be an upgrade over half the LB room as it stands currently.
Puts him a few years shy of Tom Brady.He is about to turn 32 but aged in dog years since he left the Browns.
You must've watched a different Jamie Collins than I did. He was the definition of lazy when he played here. Anyone further than an arm's reach away was guaranteed to garner zero effort from Collins.When he was healthy, he was one of the best tacklers on our team.

He wasn't even that good in his 2nd stint in NE.Collins has a long history of dogging it for every coach not named Bill Belichick.
He has also been just dreadful in coverage the first two weeks for Detroit. You'd have to be absolutely certain that his issues are "I'm on a bad team and not trying hard" and not "I'm washed up" if you were going to make that sort of move.
I'd stay away.

And with that half-assed effort, he led our team in tackles his last year as a Brown.
All I said was that he is probably better than half the LBs we currently have on our roster. I didn't say adding him would change the face of our defense.
When he plays with effort, he's still an above average LB.
