He broke his foot like Dez did in his rookie season and he came back and played with modified footwear. I am sure the shoe exasperated the recovery, and that particular foot injury has taken many like Dez out of the game.When I read that his feet issue was related to footwear and now they have that figured out I was happy. Something like improper shoes wasn't anything I thought possible in the pros. So he shouldn't be fighting the health issue so much this year and finally get a chance to shine.
This could be a dream for me. I've always wanted the Cowboys to have a DT that can cause havoc with sacks or tackles for loss.
This is the first offseason Collins has not been hurt. This guy is like a Tank. If he takes his offseason play into the regular season the defense will be better than last season.
Guys like Trysten Hill will learn alot from him. Just having that guy that can get to the QB from the middle of the line will make our defense very formidable. I hate that Quinn and gregory are suspended . The pressure they'd provide would make us almost overwhelming.
What do you guys think about Collins this offseason and how or if he will make an impact for this season?http://insidethestar.com/maliek-collins-on-the-verge-of-a-breakout-season/

Hopefully they also keep him at 3-Tech. He’s not a 1-Tech even though he can play both spots, he gets more sacks from the 3.
This is exactly why Zeke can not be signed. What if Collins grabs 10+ sacks and looks like a monster for 16 games? You going to let a stud DT go because you need to re-sign a malcontent RB. Never!
I am thinking Hill was supposed to be the cheap rookie insurance so they dont have to roll the dice and pay the oft injured Collins. Whether it pans out this way is another story.

Over Dak and Cooper?If he does break out this year he moves to the top of the priority list for re-signing. 3T is the most important position in Marinelli’s defensive scheme.
I prefer one that does it consistently instead of just his contract year!
Annual injuries, minimal production.....I prefer that players earn the next contract based on the performance during the current contract.Although he's been injured the last couple of years, I wouldn't mind locking Collins up at a team friendly deal
What are talking about? Maliek has never came close to having a camp like this. Everyone that has seen him in camp says he's been the MVP of camp.sorry but we've heard this song and dance before with Maliek.
He has had impressive camps before, he has had fast starts at the beginning of the seasons before. And occasionally he will flash that quickness and mobility that the team
was so infatuated with him in this 4-3 one gap scheme. Especially his first step get off at the snap of the ball.
But eventually he fades out, has stretches where he's just decent at best, and it's only just a matter of time before he has some injury issues,
... and it's always with his wheels (foot, ankle, leg, calf, etc)
and its a reason why Trysten Hill was drafted so high. He's going to be counted on to be the 3 tech stud that the club has been trying to get and thus far it's been just a string of
disappointments ala Crawford, Maliek, Irving.
.
But some other NFL team running the 4-3 scheme, and needing a 3 tech will overpay for Maliek in the FA market.
I'm more looking forward to that likely compensatory picks we could get a couple years away for him.
its the rumor around campo for sure.. its his health not his telnet hats in question.. same with Guys like David Irvin, Randy Gregory with drugs holding them back, not talent, point you have to be on the field to reach your full potential..This could be a dream for me. I've always wanted the Cowboys to have a DT that can cause havoc with sacks or tackles for loss.
