Yahoo Fantasy Football on Nico Collins

Collins' alpha status and 81.4 yards-per-game average make him the safest Round 3 WR.

The source identifies Collins as the safest Round 3 pick, noting the Texans' passing game is built around him. Collins has averaged 81.4 yards per game over the past three seasons, a 1,384-yard pace. With Dalton Schultz and Kayshon Boutte, Houston has just enough talent to take some pressure off Collins, but no one who comes remotely close to threatening his alpha status. Other terrific WRs in this round come with risk: George Pickens is the No. 2 receiver on his own team; A.J. Brown recently joined a new club; Malik Nabers is coming off a serious injury; and DeVonta Smith may miss the defensive attention that went to Brown over the past four seasons.
