I had him as the top DT in a good class, but he fell into the 2nd round. I think it was the lack of consistency that did him in. That, or the fact that the Alabama defense was so stacked no one got the credit they deserved.

He was explosive at Alabama, with all day power and an ability to anchor against the run like no one else in the country. I think paired with AD, he can absorb some of those double teams and free up his teammates to flow to the football. At 330 lbs, I doubt he has that explosive first step, but he isn't going to get blown up against the run.

Oh and I can revamp my mock draft because NT is off the board.

Some more

Keep in mind that he has ties to new special teams coordinator John Bonamego, who filled a similar role with the Lions in 2019, the year Robinson played 39 snaps on special teams. Despite the down season, which some attribute to a nagging knee injury, he must have gotten a good endorsement by Bonamego. And he should, as his 2018 PFF grade was an outstanding 89.7.

While this will impact the Rams’ efforts to be awarded 2021 NFL Comp picks, the terms of his salary will likely negate the likelihood of a Rams’ fourth-round comp pick.

We’ll have more in the near future. But this is a good signing for the Rams, as Robinson has a very high ceiling in the right scheme, is incredibly versatile for a big man, and will fill a vacancy which will allow the upcoming NFL Draft to focus upon best player available.
