The Dolphins have "inquired about" free agent CB Patrick Robinson.

Perhaps a late bloomer, 2010 Saints first-round pick Robinson is coming off the best season of his career. Because he's been so inconsistent, he may come at a discount. The Dolphins need a replacement for RCB Cortland Finnegan. Mar 7 - 10:49 PM

Not sure that I want anyone from the Saints defense, but it never hurts to look at someone.

Getts likes to bring in guys from within the division. See: Harper, DeCoud, and Underwood last year.

[TylerDurden]

I read some stuff on Saints boards and Twitter accounts about him last year. He appeared to be their version of Charles Godfrey, actually, even worse... He pretty much became a meme.

Make sure he's had his shots before the visit

I mean Roman Harper had as good of a renaissance as you could hope for after getting booted from New Orleans...some players just need a change of scenery.  But the list of failures from last year is also pretty high so...who the hell knows.  We probably won't sign him if that many teams are interested.

He was horrible last year.

Just turn him away then. You don't have to be nice.

CB's often struggle when your front 7 is as bad as NO's was this season.

[Mr. Scot]

I've heard different analyses of him, ranging from 'total bust' to 'talented but misused'.

 

Could be worth a look, if the second school of thought were the valid one.

[CarolinaNCSU]

As with most FA, worth a look. But he was indeed garbage IIRC. Maybe it was just Rob Ryan not knowing what to do with him/the Saints defense in general? 

[SgtJoo]

Well he had at least one good game last year

Never heard of him

[SgtJoo]

Robinson, a former first-round pick, struggled early last season as the No. 2 cornerback, but appeared to find a niche serving as the nickel cornerback.

 

Covering the slot, Robinson held opposing quarterbacks to a 57.5 rating, according to Pro Football Focus. His mark was the fifth best among cornerbacks who logged 25 percent or more snaps serving in that role last season.

 

 

 

 

Move Bene to starting corner, put Robinson in the slot?
