| Adrian Robinson Scouting Report |
| Adrian Robinson - Temple (HT: 6-0⅝ - WT: 237) |
Positives -- A pass rusher; finished with 12 sacks in 2009, fell way down to 3.5 in 2010 but responded with 6.5 in 2011 to go along with 13.5 tackles for a loss... One of the best spin moves in all of the draft class; uses his plant foot to drive past the blocker and a violent arm move to swat the opponents arm
away... Is aggressive but not to the point where it puts him out of position, is very good at picking and choosing when to put it into top gear... Shows good fundamentals; gets in a good stance and fires off the ball... Pursues the quarterback well if he escapes from the pocket, has a strong motor that just keeps him going... Very versatile, can play OLB in either the 4-3 or the 3-4... Reminds me a lot of a pitbull, the best word to describe him is tenacious; just keeps attacking until he gets what he wants... Was just a pass rusher early in his career but is developing into an all around player.
Negatives -- Relies too much on his spin move at times, not strong enough to have much of a bull rush and is very predictable if you scout him for an extended period... Strictly a linebacker, not big enough to even be considered a possibility to play defensive end... Has a tendency to get suckered in by fakes, needs to make sure he locates the ball before he attacks... Has a lot to learn in terms of disengaging a blocker, needs to learn how to use his hands to get blockers off of him... Needs to get stronger or he'll be a situational pass rusher only at the next level... Can get too far up field on running plays, opening up room for draw plays into his area.
