First off, just look at his physical stature, he's a lengthy and smooth runner with an elastic frame that is the base for his skill set. Robinson has incredibly long arms and his shoulders are loose which creates a massive catch radius that you see on some of those wild throws. Robinson has saved Bortles week to week throughout his career because he doesn't need his QB to be very accurate. I could only imagine what he could do in Oakland, New England, Green Bay, Atlanta or several other towns that would appreciate his gifts. You can give arguments about his ability to be tough, his route running his motivation at times, and he will allow a physical corner have their way..
There are clear flaws with his game - He's had bad games, he can be emotionally driven (wouldn't you be with this circus-show) but to say he's a possession receiver, call him a diva, or he's not a number one or some of the cliche things I've read here and in past threads drive me nuts. This is clear evidence to me that you either aren't watching, don't know what you are looking at or are desensitized by pro athletes to a point where nothing excites you anymore and you probably live a sad and hopeless life that consists of eating the same ham & cheese sandwich with mustard every day for lunch in a cubicle, and the hame is probably a few days past its eaten by date but you figured what the heck.
Robinson has put this team on his back and dominated at times and he plays with passion and heart through some garbage years of play with this team. The first thing teams did when they prepare for the Jags, it game-plan for Allen Robinson. Robinson is an incredible athlete, in fact, he's at the top of his position This is a heartbreaking blow to the team, because he may never be the same and if the team
Aside from the bad ham sandwich in a cubicle rant (funny BTW) I tend to agree with your points here. And many fans are indeed desensitized and expect circus catches to be the norm.
I often imagine how productive A-Rob and Lee could be with other teams and it makes me sad we don't have a QB capable of really taking advantage of their talents.
To those talking about separation, 15, 11 and 88 get separation pretty consistently. The ball is often getting there late and/or off-target and these receivers have to adjust routes
into the coverage to attempt the catch way too often.
Are there routes and plays when these guys get blanketed? Sure. But I see plenty of separation coming out of their breaks and the ball just isn't getting to the spot on time - or it's going to the wrong spot.
