Bobbyn2022 53 Posted September 22, 2014 There is a certain type of mold for a successful NFL receiver. Taking in to account (to mention a few) age, height, weight & college production including market share of targets between 20's and red zone targets for his team, Robinson fits the mold of what makes a a successful #1 WR in the NFL. Robinson is an alpha-type player that is the future of the franchise. If you can get him in dynasty, this may be your last chance. Kids gonna be a baller. He had 10 targets week 3 and imo Bortles will make this guy fantasy relevant.

TheUsualSuspect 207 Posted September 22, 2014 Not to discredit the post above, more of just a FYI... Jerry Rice today is listed between 6'1-6'2 In actuality, he is MAYBE 5'9. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FeelingMN 273 Posted September 22, 2014 In all seriousness, I'm gonna have to stream a flex this week. Haven't really thought too long about it but did see Lee is gonna miss week 4. Gotta think JAX will be down in this game and should get some garbage time points. Anybody know how much Robinson was targeted with Bortles? After this week...back to the ww though.

Bobbyn2022 53 Posted September 22, 2014 Not to discredit the post above, more of just a FYI... Jerry Rice today is listed between 6'1-6'2 In actuality, he is MAYBE 5'9. I'm not saying short WR suck but the list is much smaller. Durability is also a factor. Brown was the only one in the top 10. Harvin,Cruz,Ty Hilton these guys are boom bust type WR every week. When u look for a week in week out WR and a guy that won't get hurt cause of his size then you probably want to go with the guys who are taller and weight more.

Dsausage 36 Posted September 23, 2014 This post is pure BS. Steve Smith 5'9" Steve Largent 5'11" Wes Welker, Laveraneus Coles, Deoin Branch and so on... I dont think its pure BS. Lot of those guys played 10-20 years ago. I believe the game is getting better-faster and taller. I would take a bog body type over little everyday. Look at Kelvin B already making a splash. Jimmy Graham on that list above too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OP has no clue is hes an alpha or not and more to the point the OP does not know what an "alpha male" even is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe Robinson had 8 targets in the Second half from bortles. So did shorts. Hard to glean a whole lot in catchup mode although it's a mode the Jaguars should be in often.
