WR – Allen Robinson: Penn State (6’2″, 220)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"allen<\/a><\/div>\n
Strengths:<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Robinson has outstanding hands and ability to make a play on a badly thrown ball.\u00a0 He has a large catch radius, and really excels in the screen game, creating big plays after the catch.\u00a0 Can leap and extend to a football well.\u00a0 Has a nice burst off the line of scrimmage against off man or zone coverage.\u00a0 Uses quickness rather than speed to create space for himself.\u00a0\u00a0Fluid runner\u00a0with above average\u00a0route running ability\u00a0that needs to work on his stems (route movement before primary break) and cuts.\u00a0 Has the ability to turn a two yard screen into a big play with tremendous field vision, instincts and creativity.\u00a0 Knows how to get open and use his body to work himself free in tight areas.\u00a0 Has the frame to put on more size.<\/p>\n

Weaknesses:<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Lacks elite speed to become a true deep threat.\u00a0Struggles to\u00a0be physical at the line of scrimmage against a press\u00a0corner.\u00a0Doesn’t make sharp breaks consistently,\u00a0slowing his\u00a0route down, and giving the defender a chance to stay with him.\u00a0 Takes extra steps on his\u00a0stem to regain his balance, particularly\u00a0on double\u00a0moves.\u00a0 Has a tendency to make catches with his body at times, but has reliable hands.\u00a0 Tends to run routes half speed when the play isn’t designed to go in his direction.\u00a0 Not a competitive blocker in the run game. Poor form when blocking allowing corners to stay low and get by him.<\/p>\n

Overall Impression:<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Despite having a true freshmen quarterback in Christian Hackenberg, Robinson excelled in 2013.\u00a0 He has the physical size and ability to become a starter after some development.\u00a0 Can be a playmaker due to his quickness and field vision, but has to become a more consistent route runner.\u00a0 He has the potential to be a reliable possession receiver because of his ability to catch the ball in tight areas using his frame.\u00a0 He needs to become a better blocker if he wants to be a three down wide receiver in the NFL.\u00a0 If he can’t be trusted to block and run consistent routes, coaches will see him as a niche “jump ball” wide receiver.\u00a0 With some refining, Robinson could become a more complete wide receiver and\u00a0have success at the NFL level.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
