Patrick Robinson

D_it_up · 04-23-2010, 02:30 AM

Six people at my house watching the draft tonight and as soon as his name was mentioned, we all were silent and just looked at each other. The first person that spoke said "Who?".

I'm still trying to justify this pick, but I'm starting to wrap my brain around it more, and I completely understand why the Saints chose him after reading up on the guy. I don't think it was necessarily a bad pick, I just don't know if he was the best option.

I still will not doubt Peyton, Loomis, and Co., though. If they feel that Pat Rob was the best option, then I'm on board with it.

I remember looking at my dad a few years ago after a draft pick all be it later in the rounds and saying Who from Where?

The answer : Colston , From Hofstra. We find gems where others dont look.
I dont like the pick but am working hard to convince myself. We do need corners probably the biggest need area on our team.

I was the same way with Colston, but the major difference there is that he was a 7th round pick. Most people wouldn't know who he was. Robinson is different, because he is a first rounder. I don't know. Maybe it's just me, but I guess I'm just confused because the guy wasn't really a name that you heard much about. The front office still has my trust, however, and I accept anything they decide to do.
