Robinson was always put on the faster receiver because he's faster than Greer. I know in the case of the Falcons both receivers are fast so that's that. Greer has always done a terrific job of shutting down so many of the WR's he covers.

#1 receiver does not mean fastest receiver ie. Marques Colston

From WalterFootball.com:

Saints sign CB Keenan Lewis (5 years, $26M; $11M guaranteed): A Grade
Keenan Lewis was the second-best cornerback still available in free agency. He's better than both Sean Smith and Cary Williams, yet he's slated to make less per year than both of them. This is not because teams didn't view Lewis as an inferior cornerback; he simply took a discount to play with the Saints. According to the Chicago Sun-Times' Sean Jensen, another team offered Lewis a much larger contract.

This is obviously an awesome acquisition for the Saints. They're filling their huge corner need with a very talented player at a very reasonable price.
