2.02 Cleveland Steamers - RB Josh Robinson

In the real world: The Colts drafted Robinson from Mississippi State in Round 6. He'll compete with a few other backs (Vick Ballard, Daniel "Boom" Herron, Zurlon Tipton) for the right to back up Frank Gore, who turned 32 earlier this month. At 5'8", 217 lb., he's got a low center of gravity, but he doesn't bring much speed (4.65 40-yard dash). NFL.com's draft profile notes that he benefited from a zone-read system and a dual-threat quarterback, meaning he consistently had open running lanes.

In the TUFF world: Cleveland could have afforded to use this pick on sheer talent. With the stud WRs they have in their starting lineup now--A.J. Green, Jeremy Maclin and now Calvin Johnson--they could have taken Dorial Green-Beckham and had him sit on the bench for a couple years to see how he would turn out. Maybe they see something in Robinson's job situation that I don't, but in my estimation, they whiffed. I know I've mentioned this in a previous Draft Wrapup, but you know how the early stages of the draft are like ordering off a menu and the later stages are more like a buffet? I think Cleveland went to the buffet line when there were still a few "menu" players left. Robinson barely scratched the top 20 rookie running backs (Scouts, Inc. gave him a grade of 41, which is usually a grade they give to a late-round pick or an undrafted free agent). If the Steamers really wanted Robinson, they could have traded down.
