But i agree, he's not the athlete that Conley is and doesn't have the hands or production that Conley does. But one guy is returning from a season ending injury and the other is building on his first season with any significant playing time. So it will in fact be a camp battle.

Being a good "athlete" is only one part of the game though. Demarcus is more elusive, gets separation much better and has made catches that are simply incredible. Robinson has the potential to be a game changer imo. I've seen no evidence that Conley is anything other than a possession guy.
