Welcome To The Washington Commanders Brian Robinson RB Alabama

[Spearfeather]

I don't know why it's so funny, it's just a big hat ... but it is.

Maybe it's the look on Robinson's face, I don't know. 

But that picture is hilarious.

Ken Walker was knocked out of the game today.  With breece hall already done, could B Rob sneak his way into rookie of the year consideration?  Considering his comeback story, if his stats are even close to the competition, he should get it.  And he has been crucial to our playoff push.  We may be biased, but what a blessing he has been to our organization and hopefully gets some national love.

I admit has been a much better player than I anticipated. Unfortunately I think we are wearing him down a bit and he has that AG “I’m exhausted” stare I used to see last year.

Chris Olave would probably get it. He's been killing it for the Saints despite having QB play worse than ours.

True.  A big part of the reason his stats are so good bc the saints have been down Thomas and Landry for so many games, he is the only legit receiving threat and they feed him the ball.  And they are usually losing.  But he is definitely a talent. 

 

I do wonder how Dotson would perform under those circumstances, bc I think they're both super talented guys.  If Dotson was forced into a #1 role on a team, his stats might look pretty similar to olave.  We are pretty lucky to have our trio.

I loved Olave going into the draft. He was my #1 WR target(outside of Garret Wilson who was never gonna drop to us). But all in all, trading down and being able to get both Dotson AND Brian Robinson is probably gonna be better value in the long run. A healthy Dotson is quite good, maybe only a little bit below Olave, but getting a second offensive starter out of the trade is quite the coup.

Howell and Turner too right?  At the expense of olave (11) and a 6th?  Definitely a good trade for us. 

 

I think Olave was believed to be the most pro ready.  He will be a stud. 

 

I admit I was not happy when I heard Dotson's name. I thought he was a late 1st early 2nd type prospect and I thought we reached.  I am glad I was wrong, I love his talent and his approach.

A case can be made that Brian Robinson is the toughest runner we've had since Riggo was in his prime.

 

The scary thing is that he still hasn't fully recovered from his gunshot wounds.

Mind boggling question: How does any competent offensive coordinator hand the ball off to a guy who is absolutely destroying the defense only 4 times in the second half?

You may have answered your own question with your second statement.

This fact alone made me absolutely certain that Scott Turner is holding our offense back with his piss poor in-game play calls.  And the jet sweeps?

They did not have an answer for BRob. But pounding the rock wont make Turner look ingenious. IMO Its an ego issue and he often outsmarts himself.

[Passepartout]

Really the kid has been through a lot. And really glad he survived. He hopefully will have plenty of life on and off the field here. Such really a humble young man as well.

Byner would be my pick for toughest after Riggins. But Brian has a good start to a short season for him.

Not to stop the Turner hate fest from our board OC experts, but he was hurt.
