Lot more plausible to believe - 1. he's actually starting, 2. when he was drafted, the bills traded their veteran receiver stevie johnson right afterwards.
i had a kids wrestling team called "The Mud City Manglers"Damn Auburn Tigers wish that Les Snead and Jeff Fisher's son Trent attended and played football at Wossamotta U.
Calvin "Megatron" Johnson
Roy Williams and Mike Furrey started the first game of the 2007 season.

The #2 pick in the draft can't even start at guard?????? Wow. Just wow.
Going into the draft, I wondered why Snead and Fisher would pass on a rock-solid prospect like Matthews, with a perfect pedigree.
Further, in pre-season Donald did not flash like the beast-mode that was expected.
Then we have #2 pick Pead (bust), huge $$$ for Finnegan and Cook with neither producing much. Tre Mason not showing much and was not needed.
No decent QB prospect in the draft where Sam is brittle.
I really think that Snead is a poor judge of talent. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't like the way the stars are lining up here.
Don't know if this has been brought up yet, but even the "mighty Quinn" didn't break in as a "starter" in fact he was inactive (100% healthy) opening week at the ED vs Philly. (the year of the Cadillac Williams utter debacle)
We should be singing praises that we have enough talent NOT to rush him at this point.
An even better talent at the position didn't start immediately? How is that possible?
Seriously though, I'm sorta surprised that this bit of info and the fact that Robert Quinn didn't even start immediately didn't end this thread altogether.:eek:
I hope Robinson is All Pro, but the knock on him was how raw he was. Is he too raw to even start at guard?
Really? I have to explain my problem with you wanting to set up a sportsbook wager here on ROD as to when OUR players go down to injury? Come on man.Why? It's the truth. Not saying they're bad players or people. Some people can handle football. Others can't. That doesn't make them any less of a person. Knowing who is fragile allows the team to better plan for the future.
Funny. It's as if he is should be better than those two already.Over Saffold and Joseph? I'd say yes, he is too raw. That said, he'll get his playing time.

C'mon. What happens on one team (Buffalo) has absolutely nothing to do what would have happened in St. Louis (See, my Stephen Hill, Brian Quick point made earlier). Besides, after the ridiculous trade up they made, chances are that Watkins was going to start there even if he had forgotten how to play.
"Didn't start" but certainly played a significant amount - Calvin had 4 catches for 70 yards.
Not exactly the same thing as "Robinson not starting" if he doesn't see the field.. Unless lineman have sub-packages now
sadly, stevie has also consistently put better numbers better than any other ram receiver..
That's hardly checking grammar. Did you mean every first rounder from 2008, every 2nd overall pick from that year (I'm guessing not - just joking with you), every one of the top 5, 10, 15??? from that year? So from your response I'm guessing you meant over the last 6 years. If true, is that really a litmus test in THIS league?Thanks for checking my grammar, I should have included the word onwards, it could easily be misinterpreted by someone trying to :bow:.

If teams did use sub-packages for Olinemen would that have made Robinson a better selection? If the Rams used Greg Robinson a few times on tackle eligible plays, goal line stands (offensively & defensively), and special teams would that make things better
you were trying to make it sound like watkins wouldn't pose a threat here - yet the team got rid of a receiver who has been consistently better than what we had...speaks for itselfTrue. Means nothing regarding the points already made, but true.
Maybe so - you can avoid that by using blue font if you are joking. If you were serious and still think I am taking it too seriously then I'm done and you know where I stand.I think you're taking this a little too seriously.
