Robbins, a 2000 second-round pick who started slowly, improved by leaps and bounds last season. Adequate but inconsistent early in his career, he worked on his technique and is playing better against the run. A two-gap-style tackle, he is physical at the point of attack. Gets his hands on linemen, pushing them back into the pocket. Great strength and power. Gets his hands up and knocks down some passes, but in part because he isn't much of a penetrator. Lacks first-step quickness. Game is all about power and controlling the point of attack. Used to take plays off and disappear from games, but he now is playing four quarters and holding up well. Robbins never will be a great pass rusher, but his improvements as a run-stuffer give him a chance to be an effective role player on first and second downs.
