This is the second time this has come out in the off-season.
I'm not sure why Landon feels the need to tell people about it. If anything, he should tell his coaches. Not us.
Collins would like to be a captain

Rule #1 of being considered for team captain:
Don't constantly talk about wanting to be a team captain.

Landon striving for team captain is a good thing. If he demonstrates the qualities for the position, he has a shot. Everyone started with a clean slate.

Collins would like to be a captainLove how the guy plays, but does need to stop talking to the media about other players in negative light. To be honest, he just doesn’t to seem like the brightest bulb. I have a feeling ogeltree will be the defensive captain. Gettlemen obviously thinks highly of him. Also think Eli and deossie. I believe they only had 3 last year so I’ll go w those guys.

I like Landon. I felt his play 2 years ago was unbeilievable and showed how to lead by example. Last year not so much and too much talking. I agree with the Ogletree statement. The guys soundbites show what kind of leader he is on the field.

He is years away from being a legitimate candidate for that role... IMO it might not be something he is ever suited for really...Nothing wrong with that either.

If Collins wants the team to consider naming him a captain he shouldn't be publicly talking about how much he wants to be captain. It just makes him look thirsty for power and desperate, and not worthy of being a captain. It's good to aspire for a leadership role, but don't come off like you're begging for it.

Leadership is earned, never given. true leaders set examples that others strive to emulate, they lead from the front, they are the 1st ones to set foot on the field of battle & the last ones off.

One way not to become the team captain is to keep asking for it...

Who the heck is there to be defensive captain ? There is not a single person there that deserves it, imo. Snacks he a pain in the backside, a LBer who ?, A DB, who ?
You know I know this sounds crazy but I would vote for DRC if he comes back. Soooo Landon Collins ……. who else is there ? So we make a guy who had an outstanding year his 2nd year in the league. 1 super great year and the other 2 had spots but weren't consistently good, imo. But he might be the best choice.

This is sad to acknowledge, as a Giant's fan - but quite true. I'm not big on the "clean slate" notion, but because most of those defensive personnels' past issues, performance or attitude wise, we have little choice.

I have my doubts about this guy. (not on the field) He likes to talk way too much and seems to want attention. I don't think he should be a captain at least not at this time.
