I think we should take Duke Robinson with our #3 overall.

Good question.

Remembering him in his prime at Jacksonville, I'd say if a guy had a career like Mark Brunell: 2-1 TD to Int ratio, make 3 Pro Bowls, won several playoff games (often being the biggest aid to his team in doing so) that he would be worth it.

.

Yep. The term "risk" incorporates negative attributes - injury prone, character issues, playing in a limited collegiate system, limited starting experience, etc.
