Quote:I listed to some of the presser, and Dave mentioned that while we're obviously happy with the draft class, it never falls to where you get "everyone" you initially targeted. 

 

I'm going to guess perhaps that they might have targeted Jordan Matthews over Robinson, but thats just a guess. 

 

If not Lee, then I dunno. 

 

 

 

But as you pointed out in the past....sometimes you're better off not getting your initial targets...as in 1998 Coughlin's #1 target was RB Curtis Enis......The Bears took him, so we settled for Fred Taylor, instead.... B)

 

I don't know what other guys they had in mind, but I don't know that I've ever seen a plan to get complementary receivers like this in the same draft, either.  That's research for another day.

 

As to your closing point...absolutely right.

 

But the draft fell great to get these two receivers.

 

I typically have not been overly impressed with Penn St WRs in the past, but I believe Robinson can be the best out of them all.

 

He's bigger than OJ McDuffie and Bobby Engram, and has better change of direction/open field running than Joe Jurevicius, and is flat out better than stiffs like Kenny Jackson and Gregg Garrity.  Plus, he was there under Bill O'Brien, who has worked in the NFL before.
