  • Wan'Dale Robinson is another smaller receiver, a bit bigger than Calvin Austin III, but this kid plays BIG! Just an absolutely fun and explosive player. He's really a dog out there! Wan'Dale has traits that could one day make him absolutely FILTHY in Madden.

    Wan'Dale can do it all as a receiver, but the one thing that pops out to me about him is that, the dude is simply ridiculously elusive. His yards after the catch skills are just amazing to watch. He reminds me of a running back in many ways. It feels like I'm watching Alvin Kamara or Austin Ekeler when Robinson performs. It seems as though Wan'Dale was born juking someone out. He is undersized, but seems very willing to stay in the fray of the defense and just find open space. Robinson can turn a five yard gain into a ten yard gain effortlessly.

    Wan'Dale is just as potent as a deep threat as well. He's just a natural runner, a speedy guy that defenses cannot ignore.

    On top of Robinson's fantastic physical skills, it looks to me that Wan'Dale displays a vet like savviness and patience on the field. He's got a nice 'spidey sense'. That type of trait can lead to a lot of production on Sundays.

    Robinson's versatility to run the ball and return kicks on special teams are just some other reasons why Robinson will be a valuable Draft selection for a receiver needy team.

    Being a little undersized will present some challenges for Wan'Dale, but with his speed and tenacity, he will be ok. He is still only 21 years old too, he is probably mostly done growing, especially vertically, but his body definitely can develop and mature more, as well as ALL of his football skills as a whole!

    Here's a decent pre-draft interview of Robinson!

    I really like this kid!

    Let me know what you think of Wan'Dale! Could he could be a mini Deebo?
