Seems pretty dbowe like. Trouble catching the easy ones, makes the difficult catches.

And that contract is probably the starting point for Robinson's deal.

He gone.

2 year $4.5M doesn't seem that bad. When all we will have is Hill, Hardman, Pringle as the only seasoned WR returning.
Most of our draft capital will be going to other places.

Robinson’s a JAG, always has been, always will. With a large Mahomes contract coming up I don’t see the team paying a robinson. I do think they’ll take chances on udfas and low picks instead.

Pringle

Unbelievable catch.

I think he had playoff jitters last week.

There was only one throw that I saw that was easy to catch that he should have made. I get the whole "if it's in your hands" you should make the catch BUT that one throw was way behind him and trying to catch a pass across the middle when you are going full speed in the opposite direction reaching way back IS difficult. That was on Mahomes IMHO. In big games you make the catch, I get it, BUT in big games you also have to make the throws as well is my point.;)

Draft WRs. Keep drafting WRs. Don't stop drafting WRs. That's the name of this game now that we've got an elite QB.

We have to be selective about the WRs we choose to keep when they reach the end of their deals. Is the player elite (like Hill)? Then keep him. Is the player nothing more than depth but willing to play for peanuts? Then keep him. Is the player nice to have around? Well... yeah, he's nice to have around, but if you do your job in continuing to fill out your WR depth through the draft, that guy who is nice to have around shouldn't be getting paid that money.

Like... would I rather extend Robinson to 2 years $5 million (let's round up since Robinson has been a better playmaker than Conley was, and even that might be a bit low) or would I rather NOT cut Daniel Sorensen, who does a phenomenal job as the "clean up" guy at safety and on special teams? If it came down to it, I'm keeping Dirty Dan every single time and replacing Robinson with either Pringle or Kemp. Or a guy that we draft. Or some other random UDFA from the practice squad or training camp who just kind of shows up and looks great.

We've got an elite QB now. Our QB has just as big of a role in developing WRs as our coaches do. And we've got one of the best in the game.

Felt he could easily be our # 3 and the replacement for Watkins.

Not so sure anymore.....:hmmm:

I had the same hopes for DRob but the way he completely disappeared when both Watkins and Hill were out (particularly the Colts game) pretty much sunk that hope. He didn't do anything when Hill came back on limited snap counts with Watkins still out. I would keep him if he willing to play at roughly the same salary but wouldn't cry about it if he left either.

I will say in his defense that on at least two of the drops last week, the ball was pretty far behind him. He still should have caught them but they would have been pretty tough caches.

This and play Hardman over Sammy Watkins & I hope Watkins is gone next year he is over paid.

RealSNR 01-18-2020 01:48 PM

We can't fall in love with every James Thrash or Hank Baskett guy who fulfills that 3rd or 4th WR role on this team. Yeah, I'll bet some of them really do a good job in that role. But either they're really a WR 1 or 2 or we don't pay them. Or we pay them what we're paying them now. It's that simple.

Robinson’s strength is his ability and willingness to block as a WR.

So similar to Connelly....

FAX 01-18-2020 01:55 PM

I view Robinson as the archetypal "team player". Runs routes to get other guys open, willing blocker, positive attitude, and the like.

And lest we forget, he's made some crucial catches for us. I'm a fan.

Sort of reminds me of the role Albert Wilson had.

This argument about WRs disappearing is often times BS. Not saying BS to you personally of course. How much of that is due to not being thrown to or the OL not blocking well enough to have the QB find you or going against elite corners.

There are multiple reasons why WRs disappear and it's not always the WRs fault because they don't get separation in running crisp routes. I get that happens BUT more often than not it is either the QB not finding them, the QB choosing elsewhere, or QB not having time to find them because of crappy offensive line play. You are spot on about 2/3 passes being very difficult to catch.
