Scouting Report: Strengths
- Has a knack for getting open and is a quarterback's best friend - passers just need to toss the ball in his area and he'll come down with it.
- Robinson fights his way off the line of scrimmage against press coverage, showing quick, violent hands and good balance.
- He has reliable hands and shows the willingness to make catches in traffic over the middle.
- Balanced, savvy route runner with top field awareness, setting up and selling routes beautifully.
- He is quicker than fast and lacks elite wheels to simply blow by defenders, but Robinson has good football speed.
- Robinson also proved to be a force in catch-and-run situations. A violent runner who transitions upfield quickly after the catch, he has the speed to pick up chunks of yardage once he’s broken the first tackle.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Robinson seems comfortable in traffic to the point where Robinson doesn’t make the effort to create separation.
- Doesn't look like much physically with a smallish frame and little room to get much bigger
- Doesn't have the size to consistently win on the outside, but can be productive working the middle of the field and as a return man.
