Selected by Houston Texans
Round 1, pick 10 (10 overall)
BIO: Two-year starter and team captain as a senior, posting 50/1/12 after a breakout junior campaign which included 49/4/10. Special teams player and safety his first two seasons.

POSITIVES: Physically gifted cover corner with top athleticism. Quick footed, fast backpedaling off the line and moves with speed in every direction. Explosive closing on the action, possesses a tremendous break on the pass and flashes on the scene. Gets vertical, contorting to defend the throw. Tracks the deep pass and has a nice move on the ball. Disciplined yet tough and willing to mix it up defending screens or running plays.

NEGATIVES: Lacks a sense of timing gets turned and a late reactor. Plays back on his heels and not always mentally on top of the game.

ANALYSIS: A tough prospect that plays big and fast, Robinson possesses skills that translate well to the next level. Best suited as a zone corner, backed off the line of scrimmage where his explosion can be used a maximum. Stands to improve his press-cover skills but will be effective at the next level in the proper scheme.

PROJECTION: Mid First Round
