Darius Robinson Summary:

The Positives

• Has a very good rip move that was successful against Georgia multiple times
• Fierce tackler
• Has a swipe move (though it needs development)
• Decent athlete
• Plays the run well
• Shows the ability to counter at times
• High motor
• Carries weight very well

The Negatives

• Does not have great bend it doesnt seem
• Needs to learn a bull rush to match intensity when engaging blockers
• Arms seem a tad short

It is hard to find a definitive answer on how old Robinson is, but the film shows a player that could start sooner rather than later. Some places have him at 22, others 23. Either way he is a tad on the older side, but needs less development than others in this class. He has a signature rip move that is very effective, and uses a counter spin at times when it does not work. He flashes a swipe move as well but it needs work. Where he really stands out is his super high motor, that pairs with hard hits and an ability to really affect the run game. He may be the best all around edge defender in this class. Physically, he matches up almost identically with Cam Heyward. Our comp for him is Heyward out of college because, even though he was a first rounder, he outplayed his draft slot by a mile. Robinson may not quite have the ceiling of what Heyward is as a pro, but he could come close.
