Good post and I agree.

So far, Collins is making his presence felt every game and the more he plays the better he gets.

George Kittle on rookie DT Alfred Collins:

"I cannot get over Alfred Collins. I just think he's such a good player and you just see his effort out there. If you guys watch the all 22, I just think he's making so many plays and so much effort and so much hustle. I'm just so proud… pic.twitter.com/23HFZEHZZ7

He's a really good player. Amazing how well he is playing already. The future is bright for him. We hit on one and really need that interior defensive line position too. We need somebody to plug up gaps and give internal push up front. He's huge and long and powerful. You got to love that.

Yeah this guy was on the hate train for a while. He will still probably find something negative to say about him.

lol I'm not over here hoping he fails. Some of you were overhyping him, I said he was getting blown back and a liability because he was and that means I hate the guy and pray for his failure 😂. He's looking better these past few games I don't see much impact to be saying he'll be a pro bowler next year but he's starting to hold down his gap and being more consistent.

If he gets a few pressures, tackle for a loss, stuffs the run, but no sacks vs the Titans.... continues that the following week up at Indy plus a sack... follows that up and another sack vs Da Bears... follows that up with a great game vs seaCucks and one of the main reasons why Niners (if) win. Then what?
