Allen Robinson is an interesting free agent. He had a monster year in 2015 where he led the league in TDs (14). He then regressed in 2016, not even posting 1000 receiving yards. Of course, this was to be expected when you’re playing in an offense run by 2016 Blake Bortles. Thats a bad year, reminds me of Post ACL tear Joe F… Never mind.

If Robinson had bounced back this year, he would be in for a monster pay day (he’s probably in for a big one anyway). Everyone in the league knows what he is capable of, but the ACL tear will lead to some caution. He seems like an ideal candidate for the franchise tag but the Jags are paying their defense a number equal to the GDP of Rhode Island and they have a few young guys in Dede Westbrook/Keelan Cole they control for cheap so its possible that he doesn’t get the tag (projected to be ~$16M). If Allen Robinson does make it to the market he is the best FA WR in my mind, lets take a look at some of his work.

ROUTE RUNNING

With his big frame some may think of him as purely a jump ball possession receiver. That is not the case, he has solid moves and can separate easily in man coverage. (see: 72nd percentile agility score from player profiler)

Gets the CB turned around on this out

More physical on this one, still gets open

Easy separation on this slant. Nice fake outside

Finally, he leaves the CB in the dust on this hitch.

DEEP THREAT

Despite a below average 40 time, Robinson is fast for his size (This is shown in the playerprofiler.com speed score which weighs in size). He can use his long strides to get open deep and then can beat you after the catch.

Here its tight for about 15 yards but then the CB cant stay with him. Robinson takes this one for 90 yards (Longest TD of 2015, and yes it still counts despite being against the 2015 Saints)

I cant tell if the corner was letting the safety take over or if the double move was that brutal. Im leaning towards the latter.

Finally, beats him cleanly here with the initial stutter, Blake under-throws the TD

CONTESTED CATCHES

Robinson is great at high-pointing balls. He is able to consistently come down with balls in traffic. Last time the Ravens had a guy who could do that, this happened

Right over the top.

Great adjustment here for the pass that’s behind him.

You can hold him, Gilmore. Not sure it will matter.

Again.

Robinson will eat bad corners.

CONCLUSION

Robinson will be the best free agent if he hits the market. Im not sure he makes it there, but if he does he will be a game changer in any offense.
