Chiefs Demarcus Robinson, a superstar in the making?

UChieffyBugger · 08-10-2018, 03:54 PM

The penny seems to have dropped with this kid. He was absolute class against the Titans and once again he carried that form on last night. Folks have been raving about him In camp and it just all looks to be coming together for him now.

He's recently spoken about the hard work he put in with Pat In the offseason and how he's finally started to grasp the playbook, So I expect to see him get better and better with each snap. That stop-start move he pulled off for the touchdown yesterday was pure quality. He's just so elusive and his ability to get separation in tight spaces is second to none imo.

I think he's gonna be our number three WR and I believe he will make a massive step forward this season. Because in terms of raw talent he really does have it all I think and he actually compliments Tyreek, Sammy and Kelce so well because his style is different to all of them.

He is the kind of explosive player who can potentially be a star, yes... still a long way to go though, obviously

I do believe he will take the #3 from Conley, he is just a better all around athlete

Conley can do one thing. Catch a 7 yard slant for a first down.

The Chiefs should restrict him to doing that one thing because Robinson is a quality #3. I love this guy.

He's gonna catch bombs from Mahomes just like he did last year in the preseason.

Hammock Parties · 08-10-2018, 04:04 PM

He only timed 4.59. He plays much faster. Faster than Conley, who ran a better 40.

I think he's going to turn out to be one of those guys who is just good at football and the measurables don't matter.

Our WR corp is definitely deeper than any time in recent history. Our entire offense really is stacked when you add in Kelce, Hunt, and Ware.

Now we just need the o-line to take better shape. They have me pretty worried at the moment.

Many In Chiefs media laughed off the notion that Robinson could take the number three spot from Conley but now it's looking more and more likely by the day. Because he's not only a deep threat, but his elusiveness and quick bursts allows him to be a nightmare in the middle of the field too. I just cannot see how teams will be able to deal with Hill, Watkins, Robinson and Kelce. I think D-Rob will see a ton of one on one and be in loads of space In the middle of the field against guys who will not be able to cope with him.

Big fan of Robinson here. I was always in the Robinson over Conley camp this off season.

The thing is, unless we have an injury, his targets will be limited by having to play second fiddle to Hunt, Kelce, Hill and Watkins.

I think our O-line are one of those groups who take time to get going, but when they get in a rhythm they really are decent. I fully expect them to be in sync when the real stuff starts.

Yeah that could be a worry but I actually think that teams will be so concerned about Hill, Watkins and Kelce that Andy is likely to involve Robinson much more than teams will expect.

A good example is the double move Robinson used on the TD from Henne, Conley doesnt have the foot quickness to pull off a double move like that

For some reason that made me think of Rod Smith.

Draft position and combine numbers don't mean everything. Rod Smith could play. So can Robinson.

There shouldn't be any reason to have Conley starting over this guy in my opinion.

Fish · 08-10-2018, 04:19 PM

Conley had infinitely better Combine numbers. But Robinson sure looks to be the better player on the field at this point. I really like him.

The way he plucks the ball out of the air on most of his catches is really nice.
