New Orleans Saints rookie Patrick Robinson gets an early earful from defensive coordinator Gregg Williams

05-09-2010, 01:50 AM

Rookie cornerback Patrick Robinson said he hadn't heard much about New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams' reputation as a fiery leader - but it didn't take long for him to figure it out.

"When I first got here, I got to hear his personality. Now I know who he is," said Robinson, the Saints' first-round draft pick out of Florida State. "He was hard on me right away, just like my old coach (Florida State defensive coordinator) Mickey Andrews. So I'm used to it."

I hadn't heard that. A lot of reports about any of these kids are incorrect and/or guesses. What I read about him after the Saints drafted him was that he wasn't fast enough and in the next article I read about him it said that he was fast and ran a 4.38 at either the pro day or the combine, I don't recall which one.

If he does prove to be lazy, I think that Joe Vitt has connections to find something to pep him up some.

Too soon?

Good Sctuff...

This kid has to understand that he's a No. 1 and he better contribute immediately...

They should have fan day with the draft picks so these guys can "appreciate" the lofty, special status that has been given them...

That, and they should make the league minimum, no more large rookie contracts...
