is certainly deserving of a mention on a list like that. His role will almost certainly increase and he has enough talent to take advantage of the increased volume.
But Robinson is just a shot in the dark. The writer of the article even says that he was advised to take Robinson of the list. But Robinson is a TE with impressive physical tools and McAdoo is a guy who was a TE coach for years in Green Bay. So I guess there is a chance that he could be our Jermichael Finley. But Robinson hasn't proven anything yet so it's hard to say he is a player ready to explode with a bigger role.
which is too bad, as I really, really liked him as a prospect. He just doesn't win enough battles.
I don't think he is a future #1. Like you said he doesn't win enough battles and lacks that "nasty" quality that made healthy Nicks such a beast. He's a little too finesse and all his route running mistakes left a bad taste in my mouth.
But I think he can be a fine #2 WR. Even though I'd still be willing to draft a WR in the first couple of rounds.
we better hope he can be a #1, because I don't think any rookie coming in, will be on the same page with Eli right away.....
As for Robinson, the time for excuses is over, he either produces or should be gone....all I can remember of him last year, was him falling down on his own, breaking out of a pass pattern, and Eli almost being intercepted because of it....

Could be a fun year especially if we get a in-house lift from someplace unexpected.
Robinson is very key because of his potential skill set. He could run down the seem untouched against a LB.
Randle will be a solid NFL #2 with moments of looking like a #1 but he won't be a Nicks of say 2011.
Jernigan looks well suited to this new WC offense and I see him doing well this year.
Lets hope our youth shines because if they don't we could be in for another tough year on offense.
Good discussion about Randle in the video I linked.
