The dumbest thing is can somebody show me where Robinson consistently makes yards after the catch. He just jumps up and falls down.

His size is naturally eliminated as any kind of physical advantage. He hardly ever catches the ball in stride and never has a foot or two of separation from a defender. What kind of an offense is that?

As it is, he stands to make much more money than we should risk.

Aaron Kampman.

Let that sink in for a while.



We've had drop and fall receivers in Jacksonville including Dennis Northcutt, but that's not at all ARob's m.o. ARob is always quick to do what it takes to run after the catch and score. The thing is, he's also great at coming back for underthrown balls due to throws failing to hit him in stride. One of the first things I noticed about ARob was that he had Fitz' gift for tracking footballs in the air, and he'll do what it takes to make the catch first... but given the chance, you bet he'll run with it.

In regard to running after the catch, and while nobody is quite Justin Blackman when it comes down to this, I have thought about ARob compares to the great Jimmy Smith. You see, Jimmy would get the ball and he'd run with it after the catch... only he'd find the quickest route to angle himself toward the sideline, and that's why his TD count is so low compared to others with anywhere near his number of catches or yards. But with ARob, you see him looking to score after the catch whenever possible.

I've actually noticed for many years over and over again how ACLs tend to work. Typically the first year back the player is just a little worse than before... like not that much worse but enough for it to be noticeable. ...but then the following year the guy breaks out better than ever before. I keep seeing that routine happen.
