Denard Robinson

DA954BADBOY · 03-19-2013, 07:18 PM

With what weve seen with RG3, Russell Wilson, and Cam Newton. Could you see a team looking to take Denard to play QB?

No. RG3, Russell Wilson, and Newton were all elite passers. He may get a shot as a backup in training camp but I think he will end up as a WR/RB/PR/KR

It'd be hard I guess....IMO, all 3 of the QBs you mentioned are better passers than Robinson, and while Griffin and Wilson are short like Robinson, they are MUCH better passers than he is. Newton is also pretty big and strong physically, which Denard doesn't have either trait....

Luke Skycocker · 03-19-2013, 07:27 PM

Nope, he's destined to be a slot receiver or tailback

I agree with you. But could you see a team spending a 3rd round pick to see. It worked with Wilson last year. Denard is a football player. Give him talent and who knows what can happen.

Denard Robinson = Armanti Edwards

cockypanther · 03-19-2013, 08:04 PM

Debate is too small to play QB in the NFL.. And he's not a very good QB.

uscsandstorm85 · 03-19-2013, 08:10 PM

No. If he wants to be in the NFL, he will have to do it by catching passes, not throwing them.

RG3 is 6'2''.... Robinson is is like 5'10'' - 5'11'', I wouldn't compare them in terms of passing ability or height.

All those other players worked out as QBs at the combine. Robinson a WR

Also, Dennard is not Armanti Edwars he's Antwaan Randle El

Russell Wilson was going to be a quarterback no matter what. He is one of the best 3rd round steals in draft history thus far.

Robinson was one of the worst QB's in college football. His athletic ability and speed helped him a lot of the time, but he is not going to stand in the pocket and make the throws needed to be successful in the NFL, nor is he going to be able to make them.

i dont think he threw another pass after he hurt his elbow vs nebraska. if anything it was a blessing in disguise for him because it got him looks at positions other than quarterback.

hes worked out all offseason at wr, but i think tailback would probably be the easiest transition for him and he did supposedly do some work at tailback during the michigan pro day. some teams did tell him to try and keep his arm in shape, but he wont be a franchise qb or even a project at qb. he'll be a utility guy who you might ask to throw a pass as a wrinkle. i'd draft him as a change of pace rb. i think drafting him to be a full time wr would be a mistake. you'd have the option to use him as a returner regardless, but i dont think his skillset will ever transition well to wr. as an athlete rounds 3-5. as a qb, undrafted.

as a nfl qb, id probably take tebow over him.

Doubt it..... Robinson has great talent & shake and bake...... but a QB? Not much chance in the NFL......

I see him like a Darryl Sproles type player.. get the ball to him in the open field whether it's screens, sweeps, etc. Guy has elite speed and good vision, will make a good athlete in the NFL. Has the ability to return kicks too.

Regalcock · 03-19-2013, 11:02 PM

Not a qb.

4Ever2Thee · 03-19-2013, 11:21 PM

He may make it to the nfl but it won't be as a qb and I doubt he'll have much of a career
