Your sleeper WR of 2010 - Brian Robiskie (1 Viewer)

I'm certainly with you in the idea that Robiskie is currently one of a handful of WRs you can basically roster at your leisure near the end of your draft, and yet he actually could be in your lineup (in 3WR leagues particularly) quite a bit if things fell right. He's not even showing up in Clayton's consensus WR ADP data (which goes 91 receivers deep): http://subscribers.footballguys.com/apps/a...ortby=consensus

I have him ranked WR68 in my latest projections, but definitely think that will be moving up a tad when I do my next set of projections and rankings. As a late round flier on the end of your roster? I dig him more and more. :angry:
In dynasty leagues he went pretty early in rookie drafts last year.

James Jones is another late rounder that could be WR2 or 3 this year if Driver can't go.

A few more I like...

218 Lance Moore NO WR 76 224 246 184 253

244 James Jones GB WR 80 239 197 264 226

246 Jason Avant PHI WR 81 206 247 254 241

271 Deon Butler SEA WR 87 233 271 270 298

Robiskie was a featured player tonight on a local Brown Traing Camp Show. They were talking about how he finally seems to "get it" this year. Mangini had some very complimentary things to say about him.

 
Is this 2009 again? I fell for this last year.
Oh you mean his rookie year....I feel bad for when u miss breakout WR's...was sidney rice the man his rookie year....nope.
It was obvious Sidney Rice had big time talent and potential. Robiskie unfortunately offers none of that. If he lives up to his potential, he is merely a pretty solid #4 wr on an NFL team. Hopefully he can contribute on special teams.
:yes: He's a "Sean Dawkins All-Star." Who wants the upside of 700 yards in a fantasy league? Go with someone a lot more talented if you want a breakout candidate.Re: Standing out in OTAs. Come on -- he did the exact same thing last year, and then disappeared once contact was allowed.
:unsure: He offers about the same upside as Devone Bess even though Bess isn't going to be Miami's #1. Personally, I'll take Bess if I want Sean Dawkins.
I was completely wrong about this. Bess is a much better player.
 
To me Robiskie looks like an overcoached straightline robot out there, the kind of guy who gets up to speed and gets down from speed slowly. He doesn't seem to enjoy playing/winning.Robiskie has the potential to continue to be rostered, even featured, until a team realizes he wasn't worth the pick or the money they used to acquire him.
Any current projections on Robotskie? You all seemed so persuaded, and his 39 career catches are making me doubt my early criticism...If he was a sleeper in 2010, is a he a Lazarus candidate this year? Your competitors will be even less likely to recognize his excellence headed into this year.

The worse the player, the nicer that things the coach says about him.
