Neither of those grading sites had Robinson rated as a top 20 LT last year, and yet we consistently talk about him on here like he is already among the best at the position.

Not saying I think either is right or wrong, but it''s a weird, puzzling, yet also fascinating observation.

Obviously Jag fans (and fans in general) have bias which plays a role into it.

But I also think part of it is that us Jag fans actually watch every game, every play (sometimes multiple times). I highly doubt the same can be said for most pundits/sites doing their rankings. I'd assume they only watch a handful of games (if that) and make their opinions.

I don't think Robinson is the best LT in the league and I wouldn't put him top 5. Probably wouldn't put him top 10 either (I'd have to think about it for awhile, but I don't really care enough to) simply because of the small sample size. He had some good play during the season, as well as some bad play. He had a fine rookie season overall and he definitely showed enough to be excited/hopeful for his future.
