re: I went back and read some pre-draft analysis of Stanley Jean-Baptiste

wonder what pRob's draft analysis said?

quote:

Robinson possesses the ideal size and straight line speed coveted in today’s starting corners. He anticipates break points well and jumps routes. Robinson’s a competitive defender with great ball skills

---

quote:

---

Only has average play speed for the position and doesn’t have as much closing burst and quickness when transitioning as you’d like to see. There are some durability questions as he dealt with multiple injuries in college. Only an average technician who would benefit from some coaching up at the next level.

Good instincts for the position. Reads the receiver and is athletic enough to mirror routes.

Built to play press coverage. Aggressive use of hands at the line of scrimmage helps knock receivers off routes. Good route recognition for zone coverage. Reads the quarterback's eyes and closes quickly. Needs to improve his discipline in zone coverage, as he too often trusts his eyes and can wander out of his zone.

Shows a legitimate second gear to recover if beaten initially. Former wide receiver with natural hands for the interception. Competes well for the jump ball.

Robinson has been highly rated solely based on his height, weight, and 40 time. I see a corner who refuses to play the run, but then he turns around and isn't as dominant in pass coverage as I want him to be. There are rumors that he didn't play hard as a senior to avoid injury - this really concerns me. I question how much Robinson loves the game. Robinson carries a third-round grade, and he'll likely come off the board anywhere from very late first round to early third round.
