2015 NFL Draft: Atlanta Falcons Select CB Jalen Collins

With the No. 42 overall pick in the NFL Draft, the Atlanta Falcons have drafted Jalen Collins out of LSU.

Position: Cornerback

Measurables: 6’1”, 203 lbs, 32” arm length, 9.5” hands

Analysis:

Collins is extremely talented cornerback and brings the entire triangle (height, weight, speed) with him. He still needs to improve his technique, but the instincts and athleticism to make plays on the ball both short and deep are what set him apart. He's definitely a work in progress, but Dan Quinn should help him reach his full potential.
