Bears could use Ohio State WR
Just a few days ago, Ohio State wide receiver Brian Robiskie had been projected as a third- or fourth-round pick in many mock drafts, but his performance at the Scouting Combine may have gotten him into Round Two on some draft boards, maybe even as high as the No. 49 pick, where the Bears will choose. If he somehow falls to the third round, he could be a huge bargain.
Robiskie isn't nearly as fast as most of the other top wide receivers. He officially ran a 4.59 in Indianapolis, while 10 wideouts were clocked in under 4.45. But the 6-foot-3, 207-pound Robiskie looked better than any of them catching the ball in drills. He showed super-soft hands and effortlessly caught the ball with his hands extended away from his body without breaking stride.
Robiskie tested well in areas other than the 40-yard dash. He had the fifth-best time among the wideouts in the three-cone drill (6.72 seconds), was eighth in the 20-yard shuttle with a time of 4.19 seconds, and finished ninth with a vertical jump of 37 ½ inches.
He's got everything you need in a WR, just not the hype. His numbers dipped this year because of the awful QB situation at Ohio State. I have a feeling he'll start climbing draft charts in the coming months and wouldn't be surprised if he went at the end of the first or was among the top 4-5 WRs selected. His speed is more than adequate for his size (6-3, 210), and he is a fluid athlete with excellent hands. His head is on straight and he's a hard worker and a high character guy. Whomever lands him on draft day will get the best receiver to come out this year.
free yourself from the jam.
Can he DO THAT?
If that is determined, then you reach.
They need 2 OL, Def Line Pressure,S, another RB change of pace farv more than this guy!
not a lot of 4.6 40 receivers out there. Great technique sure but he isnt too fast
Might be a good 3rd round pick, and seems to be the kind of guy the Bears might take. Nothing flashy, no big stats. Sorry to the previous poster, no Big Ten school should ever be referred to Wide Receiver U, otherwise it wouldn't get trampled repeatedly in big bowl games or on a west coast trip to LA.
Take the guy from Wide Receiver U, aka OSU. Ask Pittsburgh if they like their guy from WRU. Of how about Indy with Anthony Gonzalez, the guy most similar to Robiskie. You simply cannot go wrong with a receiver from OSU.
After watching the combne, it would be better for the Bears to use a draft pick on an OT , Offensive Guard in the first round. Select a WR in the second round who be the great move like Brian Robiskie. But you have to say yes, if Jeremy Mackin would fall to 18th slot, otherwise Brian Robiskie would be an oustanding second round pick for the Da Bears!
Brian been well coached on the position and has all the abilities to develop into a great #2 slot WR. His father is a receivers coach for Jacksonville.
