Nico Collins' draft price unjustified; no evidence for production increase, only downside risk.
Nico CollinsWRHOU
Nico Collins is a draft trap despite his high ADP and recent hype around the Texans offense. The source argues there is no discernible evidence he should see an increase in production this season; his last-year production (WR10 in average fantasy points) does not justify his current draft price. With three years of production data alongside CJ Stroud, the pattern is established, and there are only reasons to expect a potential decrease in production, not increase. The source frames this as an opportunity cost issue—paying a hefty price for a receiver without upside justification.

I feel like we're overlooking a few things with the Texans offense and team as a whole really. And this is a very hefty price to pay for a receiver who we cannot literally point to any discernible evidence that he should see an increase in production this season. And the production that he had last year is just not worthy of this pick.
