Greg Robinson pick.
They kept showing how he would always hold, and was not fundamentally sound(especially late in games when he was tired). A pick that high getting scrutinized with commentary of his actual play and videos of his lapses and bad technique is pretty odd.

Oh well that was the last piece of the RG3 trade.

They did butcher him, but I think you can do that to any player. To be frank, I thought as a pure LT, Matthews and Lewan are more prepared to play than Robinson...but, this big guy showed he's not just big, has great feet, agile, and has tremendous power...so you really just have to gauge in your meetings with him...how coachable is this player?

Yes, he will have to be coached up...I would not put him @ LT this year, but he will be an effective RT pretty much out of the gate and once he learned the NFL game, move him over to LT and he could be better than either Lewan or Matthews down the road.

Robinson is an athletic wonder and sometimes people let that overshadow actual ability.

Matthews was the safer pick.
