49ers select Alfred Collins-DT-Texas with the 43rd pick in the 2025 NFL Draft

Alfred has been working on that move since the offseason. Good to see him continuing to refine it.

Sell me your Alfred Collins stock. Bull-pull move straight out of the Chris Jones arsenal. This was one of the moves I always wanted Javon Kinlaw to implement because it's perfect for IDL with these builds. That never happened, but Collins continues to work on it. Once this dude gets settled in, I think he's going to make a lot of people on here look silly.

Great move by Collins! Improving each week

Collins is going to be an awesome player. I know he was origijnally just looked at as a run stuffer, and i understand that, but he looks to me like he has the ability to have a great pass rush arsenal. insanely athletic and agile for a man his size.

i'm not ansy for next year but the thought of 2nd year collins/west/Mykel, with bosa etc. those guys should take big time leaps in their second year.They've shown a lot this year, this upcoming off season is going to be a huge boost for them. They've exceeded my expectations for how much they've had to play.

Him and cj get their first career sacks

same draft, same position, same team, popped their sack cherry on the same night, against the same legend. they're twinning forever now.

Poor Old Man River must have shat himself when he had 6'6 340lb Collins face to face grabbing a hold of him.

Lucky for O'l Phillip, Alfred seems like a big teddy bear and didn't want hurt the old man.

The future Is looking bright for the DL.

I noticed that as well lol pretty wild Alfred knew he had him but had zero intentions of crushing him. Respect

He's really a good player. I can't believe people were down on him. He's better than Mykel Williams.

Mykel Williams is recovering from an ACL injury. Just like it took Alfred time to ramp up Mykel would be doing the same thing...in fact losing Mykel put a huge hole in our run defense. Alfred also is 3 years older than Mykel. So no need to claim who's better than who.

Hopefully both will be helping us win games for many years together and both playing at a very high level!

That's an unnecessary and asinine addition at the end which ruins an otherwise good take.

People have been saying all the DL draft picks were busts. Maybe they're just slow to develop. That sack by West was impressive. He was double teamed and he shoved right through both of them on pure power.

dude is a baby beast right now, he is going to be so good!

I kinda hope not I like my DL to have a mean streak and to be feared. When I saw him holding Rivers it was really weird but probably the right thing to do he just got a strip sack last thing we needed was a roughing the passer because he crushes him
