I was reading the list of the new team captains and was surprised that 4 of the 6 were juniors. Of the 4 I suspect Collins, and Gerry will get opportunities to play and start in the NFL (Westercamp may get a look & probably should as well)
Who do you think will end up being the better pro? Gerry or Collins
My gut tells me Collins will leave after this year and Gerry will play out his senior year. I think Collins will become a starter sooner but I think long term Gerry will have a better career. He has the tools - speed, quickness, agility, & run support to be a good defender in the NFL. I also think Collins will have an impact but would be better served if he stays his senior year for more seasoning under the new coaches who are putting him in a better system that will high light his abilities. If Collins stays through his senior season - then I think both will have a more impactful career than that of Gregory - I think Gregory left a year to early - with all of his injury issues. He lost a lot of development opportunities this past season. Of course he had off field issues that may have forced him to leave early too.
