Positives - Robinson finished ranked in the 30’s last year at his position on a team that feature both Burleson and Moss in the top 20, which makes him a great value pick this late in the draft. With Moss departing to Oakland, there are currently a pile of Viking receptions available for the taking to the Viking wide out that jumps up to the occasion. With Culpepper’s ability to throw the deep ball, Robinson will likely post several usable 20+ point games.

Negatives - Robinson has been a perennial underachiever since his huge year all the way back in 1999 for Chicago. Yes, it’s been that long.

Draft Strategy - Seems like I’ve developed an appetite for WRs, this being the fourth selected in the last four picks. This seemed like the time for one last homerun swing before getting on with the chore of filling out the rest of the roster.
