Robinson (6'4/302) had one of the most remarkable 2021 campaigns of any offensive lineman in the country. However, being ineligible for the draft, he returned to school and was quite disappointing in 2022, posting a troubling 41st percentile pass block grade. Thus, he took a fourth year in College Station and, while productive, didn’t quite return to his 2021 form. A squat interior offensive lineman with a mean streak, Robinson has a vicious down-block that seems to knock over the defensive trench like bowling pins. When engaged with a defender, Robinson is vicious with vice-like grip strength and does well when driving his man out of the play. The problems arise when he is asked to move from his spot. As a puller, Robinson does well enough to get to the hole but often struggles to find work due to the effort it took to get there. On an island in pass protection, Robinson is more of a catch-blocker as he completely opens up rush lanes when he goes out to the defender. At the next level, Robinson should be able to adjust to playing on either side of the Center, even though he only played right guard for Texas A&M. Teams that run more gap scheme run concepts and have a rush-heavy neutral script will want Robinson as a potential plug-and-play piece, if not a backup that is more than capable of spelling injured players. It would behoove whichever team that drafts him to pair him next to a smart and capable pass-blocker, as his immobility will hinder his ceiling in the pros.
