Nico Collins

Collins isn't a great route runner from a technical standpoint, but he does work to get open one way or another. He's somewhat lanky, but not too bad. His hands are questionable, though it was rare for a ball to be on target at Michigan. Unfortunately, he might have the same issue with the Texans.

Nico Collins selected No. 89 by Houston Texans

The Houston Texans have selected wide receiver Nico Collins with the No. 89 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact

After losing Will Fuller in free agency, Brandin Cooks sat atop a very thin wide receiver corps in Houston. Collins will be able to make an immediate impact after the Texans decided to trade up for him late in the third round. Collins is a big and physical receiver out of Michigan and will be in a position to solidify a role in the offense as a rookie.
