LookAboutFalcon Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) Robinson is being viewed as more of an athlete for the next level than a qb. He is an electric athlete with good arm strength and the elite speed to make plays out of the backfield. I think he will have around a 4.39, 40 time. Just for a little humor in the past he has said that he could take Usain Bolt in the 40.I dont know about that but, I know for sure his speed would make him a valuable asset for the Falcons.Source CBS Sports: STRENGTHS: Track-like speed with balanced explosion and change of direction ability to create with the ball in his hands.WEAKNESSES: Extremely streaky as a passer with too many inconsistent decisions, low-percentage pass attempts and messy mechanics.COMPARES TO: Antwan Randel-El, ex-Pittsburgh Steelers -- With hot/cold accuracy and a frame under 6-feet, scouts are viewing Robinson as a Randel-El-type of prospect and more of a mid-round athlete rather than a quarterback. What do you guys think? Take a flyer on him with one of our 4th round picks if he is there?

DonOfThemBirds Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 He is working out as a WR at the Senior Bowl practices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LookAboutFalcon Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 He is working out as a WR at the Senior Bowl practices.Yep he is also returning punts to. Do you think we should take a chance on him if he is there in the later rounds? He could be our Dexter McCluster for the Chiefs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trufant Island Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 He will run sub-4.4 He is very fast, but even more elusive. I think he is much more likely to succeed in a RB/Slot role than as an actual WR. Kinda like Randall Cobb. Definantly a KR/PR. I heard that he is struggling at the Senior Bowl due to injury, but he can play. I have watched him for the past 4 years and he has got the tools to be a solid NFL player if he is used correctly. He really isnt a WR, but he could play RB and Slot and definantly KR/PR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trufant Island Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 BTW, I dont think anyone views him as a QB, not even him, but he does have the ability to run the Wildcat/pistol offense that has become a fad in the NFL. He would add another dimension to our offense and we could probably get him in the 4h or later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lju713 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I think we can succeed as a Metcalf type player for us. We need a x-factor type of guy on offense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnasty Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Meh, I'm not really impressed or intrigued with this. Dude just want's one more chance. I wish him the best, but I have a hard time imagining a situation in which he would enjoy much success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peyton Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I really think the Falcons have too many obvious holes to plug that he doesn't fit into to think he could wind up with the Falcons. Intriguing player though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lju713 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I agree Peyt but if we were to go De,Dt,Rb,Cb,and Lb I wouldnt be mad with him in the 5th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
