Calichief 3,016 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 This guy is a starting WR in the NFL. You could see it even in preseason. He gets separation constantly. He breaks routes and looks at the qb when the play breaks down. Can't teach that. Happy for this kid and the chiefs future at WR. For those who don't think Hill is a number 1, I think you are mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamardirts 2,114 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Yeah I was impressed with Robinson last night. Not as worried about losing Conley after seeing him step up last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soonerborn77 276 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Yes, very happy with his play and he'll just get better as the season goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend of AC 269 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Mahomes to Hill and Robinson is gonna be special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisChief-Maker 135 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I always said he could be something special. Just needs to get that first TD under his belt (and if he keeps getting separation like he's doing then that's only a matter of time) and I'm sure his confidence will skyrocket. He has all the tools to be a top-class WR in this league, I truly believe that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan4pres 125 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 While I think we miss Conley's blocking, I think Robinson may turn out to be our best overall receiver in year or two. I really don't think we'll need to draft a WR if he keeps developing. We'll need to address our defense in the offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Chesson is another one that could develop into a starter in a couple years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't think we'll need to draft a WR if he keeps developing. We'll need to address our defense in the offseason. Best case for us would be Robinson developing into a possible #2 next year. Getting Conley back along with Hill we wouldn't necessarily have to blow a ton of FA money on one, because like you said that D is gonna need fixing unfortunately.

DieHard 2,061 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Conley is a very good blocker. No doubt about that. I agree that we are developing horses in house at WR to be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12go4kcinva 22 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Having depth with Robinson is great no doubt. Even the oline depth while not great..is still managing decent protection and so-so on gap management. Hell..Butker comes in and raises eyebrows. Offensively..its getting done... I just wish the defensive depth was a bit more than it is..i think Sutton developed a defense to suit the strength of the players..i.e. Berry, Hali, Houston, Ford, Peters, DJ...etc. And the core of that group have been injured or just not playing as nasty as they can. It seems like a lack of leadership..i just don't see the fire...and it seems to be the reason we are 0-2 in the last 2 games. But I'm on board with Robinson...just not onboard with needing a 54-52 shootout every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 That is a good point. For Sutton your true heart and soul (and all your dollars) have been Houston, DJ, Berry and Hali. They have been a damn MASH unit for the last 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 That is what stumps me about people thinking Sutton is not the top DC n the league. Tell me who has produced a top five defense in points allowed without their 4 highest paid players. Raise your hand if you think Rex Ryan done that.

ChiefThunder 153 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Robinson is a talent...I've always liked him. If he can grab the #2 spot next season, he'll have a breakout year with Mahomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinsleycat 3 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 So far Robinson has been better than Conley imo. But I've never been a big fan of Conley. This year was the first time that he really made a contribution, and he gets seriously injured in the 5th game. Pulling for Robinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year was the first time that he really made a contribution, and he gets seriously injured in the 5th game. Pulling for Robinson Conley would move to where he was supposed to be. Robinson has been thrust into a role he has not been adequately trained for. He has some of the physical traits you want, but his experience is insufficient for executing at the level Conley did.

We have a ton of passionate aggressive players and we run a containing bend don't break defense. Its like snipping a dog or bull. They are never the same afterwards because you take the thing that comes natural to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamardirts 2,114 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Also we don't have to hold teams to under 20 to have a chance to win now, because the offense has turned the corner as long as Reid doesn't turtle up. This conservative defense is no longer necessary. Let em loose Sutton, you are already giving up hung chunk plays lets at least lay the wood while doing it.

Iluvhouse24 1,808 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Robinson is getting more separation than I have ever seen from Conley. he is a starting caliber WR based on what I've seen so far. It shouldn't be a huge surprise as he was recognized as a first round talent who had maturity issues and kept getting into trouble. http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/profiles/demarcus-robinson?id=2555478 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisChief-Maker 135 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Now he's had two games, this little break should give him even more time to work with Smith and learn the schemes. He's clearly got all the physical talent to be a monster. Fast, elusive, quick stutter feet that can baffle opponents and of course the ability to get separation. And another thing he does is watch his QB, he doesn't just run a route and expect the ball to come to him. He sees what's happening at the time and adapts accordingly, so he has intelligence too. He's also shown great hands tbh. He's got so much in his arsenal. We just have to hope and pray he can become one of the top guys in the future like Brown and Jones.

MisChief-Maker 135 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Well, I'm afraid there's another gif HERE of Robinson getting separation AGAIN, and being wide open AGAIN, and not being seen by Alex. That's near on FOUR TIMES in two games now!!..just shocking man. I hope Alex and Robinson were working hard in training over this little mini-break because D-Rob is looking more and more like the real deal with every game he plays.

I hope Alex and Robinson were working hard in training over this little mini-break because D-Rob is looking more and more like the real deal with every game he plays. If Smith sells the check town, then he's open. But if Smith is looking toward him, the defender who drops down to the check down, would've been defending Robinson. When Smith turns to the checkdown, Robinson has his defenders attention. Maybe still completable, but not "wide open." I mean, if that is, then I question whether the other three are wide open.

MisChief-Maker 135 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Robinson gets between the two defenders and has ample amount of space for Smith to throw into imo. The top QB's can make that throw with their eyes closed I think. Perhaps I'm being harsh on Alex but it just shows everyone how good this kid Robinson is at getting himself free of his man and finding space.
