He doesn't seem to have been. In his autobiography he claims to have felt that his role was as important as that of the other two. During the training for the Apollo 11 mission, he apparently stated that he didn't want to fly again, though Deke Slayton offered to put him back into the crew rotation, which would most likely have have put him as backup commander of Apollo 14 and commander of Apollo 17 (to clarify: the Apollo missions had three crew, the commander, the LMP, and the CMP. Collins was CMP for Apollo 11. Had he taken the offer, he would most likely have landed on the moon as part of the Apollo 17 mission.)

Why did Eamon De'Valera send Michael Collins to the talks with the British government instead of going himself?

Michael Collins was never sendt to England to talk with the British government, in fact it was Arthur Griffith with Collins merely as an deputy. (The question and answer beneath seems to be based on the 1996 movie "Michael Collins" by Neil Jordan, not actual historical events.) After Collins and de Valera's army had settled down with the British, Michael Collins was sent to England to settle the terms de Valera and himself wanted for Ireland. The reason that is thought to be for Collins going instead of de Valera is because de Valera in fact knew that he would not be able to free all of Ireland but a portion. So de Valera used Collins as a scape goat so the Irish people would hate Collins for not freeing all of Ireland not de Valera.
