Rumblings of a possible deal for Detroit Collins?
Let's trade Frank Clark for him straight up!

I’d think if they added Collins the Chiefs would either be looking to use him as a LE in the 4man base alignment (Clark-Nnadi/Reed-Jones-Collins) or stand him up in a odd set, with Clark and Jones playing 5tech roles and Gay and Collins as your outside backers (335 look, basically).
It would give Spagnuolo some versatility in his defensive alignment and an odd front might let them maximize Jones’ skillset while making best use of what Clark is now. We’ve seen him stand a DE up a bit, but traditionally he likes those 4-man down lineups. Not sure it works. It definitely would improve their matchup against teams that are looking to use their QB in the run game. Not sure it helps against a more traditional team like the Browns. Though it would hopefully mean Ben Niemann is no longer an option except in case of injury at LB, so there’s that…

Neimann will get his snaps because Reid values MuH eXpErIeNcE, even if the player is a raging dumpster fire taking snaps away from young and promising talent.

But he was damn good as a rookie. Bring everyone in. All of 'em. If they're actually defensive ends (not these undersized glorified under-tackles) or linebackers that can play linebacker and not just !@#$ing special teams. Tell Dave Toub that he's one of the highest paid STs coordinators in the game - that means he doesn't get to have 5 toys on the roster and is going to have to coach up what he has. We aren't carrying this many STs only players anymore because our defense sucks goat-ass.

I prefer this as opposed to the alternative: hoping magical pixie dust envelops the defense and they improve overnight.

He's a street free agent caliber player at this point. Remember back when were were picking up guys like Jason Babin in-season? He probably gave us about what we can expect from The Shart going forward.

Is it just me, or is an alarming amount of 'I Think You Should Leave' in that uncanny valley where, you sense that it should be funny, and you try to be amused, and you see that they worked hard on it, . . but it just doesn't work?
Weird, because I like Detroiters a good deal.

Expect Donks to make a run after losing Chubb & Jewell.
