It helps Aldrick that Davone Bess has done so well at Miami.
I spent a very happy 35 minutes speaking to SMU receivers coach Jeff Reinebold last night for a piece that we’ll run later in this Draft Winds series. Jeff was at Hawaii when Davone Bess was there and did a lot of work with him. He was also the position coach of Emmanuel Sanders who played so well for the Steelers after being drafted in 2010 and now Robinson is the next off his production line.
In fact when I spoke to Jeff he was coming from a meeting with Robinson who had just arrived back from the Combine. Coach asked him who he’d had meetings with and Aldrick had said ‘Carolina and Minnesota’ and then Jeff said that a ‘big smile broke on his face when he mentioned Miami and said that the Dolphins were heading up to work him out and specifically to see him field punts’.
given the history of Bess and Sanders and his body of work at SMU, Robinson could come off the board in the late 3rd, early to mid 4th.

That's what I said about ES too cost me $20 . I thought he was to small/ fragile frame etc. That was exposed a bit when that cat picked him up and tossed him like a rag doll to the ground.
Didn't realize rinebold coached bess at Hawaii...thought they had wr coach. Thought Rinebold was ga with def line? Al is totally different receiver than Bess and Sanders. The idea that you have to big as wr is changing. Any mismatch ....how can a safety or lb guard a smaller faster slot guy.
