Walter of WalterFootball has been WalterFootball'ing since 1999'. Older Content is being kept around here. Thanks for reading.
Strengths: Solid size and strength Very athletic Smooth, fluid hips Technically sound with low backpedal Excellent feet Good break on the ball Instinctive Turns head back to quarterback Keeps play in front of him Nice burst and acceleration - impressive speed Talented skill set
Weaknesses: Not very competitive Shies from taking on blocks Inconsistent tackler Lacks physicality Needs to improve jam at line of scrimmage Doesn't play up to measureables Sometimes loses focus First-round talent with mid-round tape
Summary: Robinson has been highly rated solely based on his height, weight, and 40 time. I see a corner who refuses to play the run, but then he turns around and isn't as dominant in pass coverage as I want him to be. There are rumors that he didn't play hard as a senior to avoid injury - this really concerns me. I question how much Robinson loves the game. Robinson carries a third-round grade, and he'll likely come off the board anywhere from very late first round to early third round.
Player Comparison: Antonio Cromartie. Cromartie is a talented player who shows inconsistency and severely lacks in run support.
