He will solidify the line for 10-15 years. He will be groomed into a dominant LT watch
 
Haha! They gave us a B+?

I guess they liked someone better, otherwise it makes no sense.

This isn't the same ol' same ol' either, this kid is a beast. Here's him standing next to pro bowl OT Tyron Smith who was considered a freak and Greg actually ran faster than him.

STOP freaking GRADING PICKS WHO HAVENT EVEN PRACTISED YET
I think it mainly comes from the idea that we drafted a tackle when we already had a LT and that's not conventional.

It may turn out very smart in the future, but I can see why there's doubt now.

Had the Rams picked Manziel at #2, he wouldn't have practiced (forgive my American spelling. I'm an unwashed heathen.) yet either, but many people would criticize the pick.
 
And actually I'm looking at CBS' site now and I'm perplexed.... here's the description: "An easy pick. They had to take Robinson. He will play guard and then move to left tackle."

How on Earth is the pick they "had" to make only a B+?

They should put a normal human being - or a car - in that picture for perspective.

He looks like Smith's big brother...Look at the size of his arms..
 
I'm still worried about his pass blocking, but if coach Boo thinks he can do it, I'll trust him.

The guy is just massive lol. And not the Rokevious Watkins type of massive, either. This guy has all of his weight in the right places, pretty much the prototype build for a 330 lb OT.
 
You cant really have a grade that means anything right now and it is what it is. I dont care what grades any of these gossip rumor monger sports reporters say. All I care about is if he performs as advertised. A grade may have more validity after a few years. Either way, who cares. Just someones opinion anyway.

I'm still confused with the grade given the description text... it makes no sense. The Rams made the easy pick... the only pick they could... and it's a B+?

That's like telling a student "You got every question right, but it was an easy test and you're really smart. B+." That's nonsense.

Maybe it was a case of them not trading down and still getting Robinson, but if no one's giving you a good offer, you take your guy.

I'm a teacher. Stupid grading irks me.

Probably because they did not have him mocked there. They wanted Watkins or Mack or even Manzeil. Who knows. Like I said just filler. Means nothing. Dont give it any power. Robinson will be a good pick.
 
How can you justify a B for taking the best overall player at that slot? How do you get an A then?

Maybe it's like WWE, where Triple H insisted on calling Daniel Bryan, the hottest thing going in wrestling right now, a "B+ player". But football isn't supposed to be scripted.

Of course, Triple H's real name is Paul Levesque, and of course, you cannot trust anyone named Paul.

You are correct....
It's just that CBS is a collection of talking turds.
