STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Collins is the optimal Round 2 pick from slot 9.

Collins is the optimal Round 2 pick from the 9th slot and is part of Tier 2 wide receivers (alongside Lamb, Jefferson, and London) that have good odds of making it back to the 9th-slot team on the backswing.
