Would love him as a #2. Showed last year he can find his way to the endzone, takes some pressure off of Larry.

He was my #1 Free agent WR for us to bring in last year. Super Fast guy, with deep threat material who just couldn't get healthy or in a system he was comfortable with.

If Canfora's latest tweet is right I would be excited. "Cardinals and Cowboys trying to push for Laurent Robinson before he gets to Jacksonville"

Gets my seal of approval. Very underrated talent.

Get it done (along with Manning :D )

Robinson is in Jacksonville tonight looking for a deal...or trying to drive up his price tag.

They really need some WRs. He would be their #1 WR. I don't think Cards can match the $$'s he will get from the Jags.

The Cowboys, Jets and Chargers are also after Robinson, so there could be a bidding war we're not prepared to enter.

There are a handful of guys just as good as him that can be had for half as much: Chad Schilens and Josh Morgan are just two examples. Dude is made of glass. Maybe if you can pay him Chansi Stuckey's deal, but he's not worth $4 million a year.

We are looking for a #2 not a #1.

If he werent a one year wonder who showed flashes prior to that he would be a #1 WR contract.

Of the #2 WR's out there he is without question at the top.

What flashes? Even his healthy stats are damned mediocre. Not impressed.

We desperately need a speed guy and I really hope we dont need to find our #2 WR in the draft...

Sign him up.

Show me anywhere in his career before last year he was a "stud"

Even when healthy his stretch the field ability seems lacking if you look at YPC.

Not hard to look good in Dallas with those other two WRs taking all the coverage.

2009 with the Rams. Those numbers are for 2 games - he broke his leg early in the third game. I had taken a flier on him in my keeper FFL and was stoked, then his leg went boom.

Be aware that this off-season is loaded with FA and draft able wideouts.

Just within the past 2 weeks, for example, we've seen Hill explode onto the scene and Al Toon's kid (a big fella with hands) nail a 4.38 during his Pro Day.

Plenty of available options still open to us.

He was VERY good for Dallas last year in place of the often injured Austin and Bryant.

Gambo is an idiot, by the way. "The Cards are interested in Robinson? Maybe he's one of those guys who could be good but was stuck behind big name receivers last year and didn't get to prove himself."

Apparently Gambo didn't pull up his stat page to see how much he actually played.

Miles Austin only played in 10 games last and they only played in 7 games together.
