Lets get to know: Allen Robinson

Mods move this if you feel it's necessary.............. Since the season is over I wanted to create a draft profile in the upcoming weeks and months on certain college players.  In hopes of providing my personal insight, helping other familiarize themselves with the prospects and provoking a conservation among others.Just higher end players for now, and ones that pertain to our needs. I wanted to start by doing my favorite wr and everyone's favorite topic as of late. I've watched every tape of his on http://draftbreakdown.com/players/ and some twice, and wanted to share my thoughts and offer a breakdown. This is all pre-combine obviously and based just of game film, we can revisit them later if need be. Without further ado.........

 

The Numbers

6'3 210

2012 -  77,1013,11

2013 - 97,1432,6

 

Pro's

* Prototypical measurements, great build

*Great YAC

* Catches ball at it's highest point

* Can make the acrobatic catch

* Very fluid athlete and elusive

*Played in pro style system where he ran all the routes

 

 

 

Con's

*Offers little to no effort in the run game, often times just gets in the way at best

*Lets ball get into body to often

* Not a burner, and needs to learn to rely more on physicality to get separation

 

The breakdown

I think Robinson would make a ideal receiver in our system. I think he has all the traits to succeed, fast, physical, athletic, separates, makes the difficult catches, and makes plays after the catch. I like players who have done it over multiple years, and are a focal point of their team. Despite being the only real weapon on their team and shoddy q.b play he did it consistently. Had at least 5 catches and over 60 yds, in every game this year but one. High ceiling, high floor player

 

I also wanted to address those who complain the he catches a lot of screens. If you as much of Robinson as I have you would notice Penn. St. had real struggles in 2013 with their freshman quarterback. You could argue he would have had 3 or 4 more touches if not for errant passes. The team was almost forced to keep it short, and this I believe shows in his lack of red zone production

 

NFL comparison: Brandon Marshall

Projection: Late 1st - early 2nd

 

The film

 

 

The triple move(yes triple move) at 2:30 was when I feel in love with the guy. He leaves the defenders in another area code

 

 

The screen he caught at 2;58, reversed field and ran 65 yards was a thing of beauty. Yeah that doesn't happen in the NFL but it really hightlights his elusiveness

 

 

Wipes the floor with Syracuse. See  the :24 sec mark

 

 

Just for fun I wanted to include his H.S basketball highlights. Mutliple dunks, high rising blocks, etc. gives you a feel on how athletic he is.  See :53 sec mark

What round is he expected to go in? I really really think we should double up on WR in the first two rounds to give Cam some help. If we have the money I think we should (and especially if we can't keep Hardy) try to get Rodgers-Cromartie for our secondary.

If the Broncos win the SB I'm hearing he might retire

Late 1st-Early 2nd right now

 

Oh alright I thought he was more of a late 2nd, early 3rd. Haven't followed college players very closely yet, but I like the looks of Benjamin and Jordan Matthews. I'll look into Robinson though.

I will have to be honest..I did not see one snap of Allen Robinson's career..and I am sad for it bc he looks to be really good after the catch and is prettty explosive out of his cuts.

At 6'3 he will give that Josh Gordon type threat of size/speed/rte running hopefully without the drugs..unlike Josh.

    • They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers
    • Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.
    • Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
