I called Robinson as the pick @27 because he just such a violent, active player. The Cardinals don't have anyone like him on the roster. He's such an imposing, tough guy, I'm excited to see how he fits.
2024 1st round pick #27 is Darius Robinson Edge

You've been high on him for a while now
Hope you are correct as we need guys that can disrupt on the Dline

I hope so, but sometimes the fit can be wrong.
A classic example from many years past was Calvin Pace. Not a 4-3 end, but was a pretty good 3-4 edge for a bit.

Hold onto the ball, Murray!
Yep, ILBer is the QB of the defense.

interesting and FYI on the question of Robinson over Newton:

Commanders rookie Johnny Newton needs foot surgery
Earlier this year, Commanders rookie defensive tackle Jer'zhan "Johnny" Newton had surgery to repair a partial Jones fracture in his foot.

And Jones fractures are notoriously hard to heal injuries. Tons of complications and tend to break the foot again.interesting and FYI on the question of Robinson over Newton:

Once I learned that he had that injury, I was much more iffy and I completely understand passing on him. Now the Cardinals look even more wise passing on a guy with significant injury issues.

Like I said. He had injury concerns:
Commanders rookie DT Johnny Newton needs second surgery for similar injury, other foot; no timeline for return
The second-rounder already had a procedure to repair a Jones fracture in his right foot

I get it.
For me, it's English-speaking Canadians from Toronto who don't know that the plural of LEAF is leaves, not Leafs, as in Toronto Maple Leafs.

He was always a bad fit. I know that many fans wanted him, but I never understood why, or for that matter why anyone had any hope that the Cards would select him.
And related to the thread topic, I completely agree with being excited about Robinson. He could be a star.
And were down to two; Benson and Taylor-Demerson!
Still 17 unsigned picks from the 1st round! Maye signed today too. From rounds 1-4, about 60% are signed. Rounds 5-7 shows over 90%.

Interesting they have Monti doing the signing videos now. I guess Bidwill knows he's better off laying low.

He and Xavier Thomas are huge human beings.
We forget sometimes how young these guys are and that they are fans too... it's cool to see how excited he was that Kyler talks to him, lol... and the honest surprise he showed about how strong Will Hernandez is.. looked like it shocked him
