The 2025 NFL Draft is upon us, and so is your need to be prepared for all of tomorrow’s stars. Dive into our spotlight on Alfred Collins, featuring his scouting report, strengths and weaknesses, his recent draft projection, and where all the experts predict he could land.
Alfred Collins’ NFL Draft Scouting Report
Alfred Collins has enigmatic qualities as a 2025 NFL Draft prospect. He accumulated just seven career sacks in five seasons at Texas, and as expected, he struggles to attack independently on pass-rushing downs, despite his physical tools.
However, he is extremely effective as a run defender — perhaps the most effective in the class.
His style will not suit every team, but Collins’ high floor in the run game, combined with his athletic upside, makes him an extremely compelling Day 2 investment. At 6’5″, 332 pounds, with long levers for arms, Collins is a pure space-eater who also has the explosiveness to reset the line and hit blockers with jarring power.
He can slab blocks, stack-and-shed with violence, and snuff out carries, and his power profile and motor imply untapped potential on later downs.
Alfred Collins’ NFL Draft Projection
In CSN’s 7-Round 2025 NFL Mock Draft from April 12, Collins landed in Round 2 with the 64th overall pick. James Fragoza has this to say:
Beef — that’s what Alfred Collins brings to the Eagles’ already meaty defensive front. Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis can’t stay on the field forever, so Collins should form a strong rotation.
And in CSN’s recent 2025 NFL Mock Draft for Day 2, Bjorn Bergstrom had this to say about Collins’ selection to the Buffalo Bills in Round 2 with the 56th pick:
The Bills have an immediate need at defensive tackle, and they nabbed Collins at the end of the second round. The former Longhorn is massive, standing 6’6″ and 332 pounds, and proving to be a double-team eater in the middle.
Although he only recorded one sack in 2024, his versatility and athleticism suggest that he has the potential to grow in that area of his game.
