BALLER MOVE: Target in Later Rounds for FLEX Upside
CURRENT ADP: 206 STD, 176 PPR
ANALYSIS: "Shoelace" Robinson was positively electric from Weeks 7-10 in 2014, when he took over the starting job from the woefully ineffective Toby Gerhart. He'll likely open the season behind rookie T.J. Yeldon, who should handle the first and second-down work early on (although there are rumors it may be Robinson who starts Week 1).
Robinson is an outstanding runner, especially in the open field, where his acceleration is nearly unmatched. During the aforementioned stretch where Robinson started before suffering a season-ending mid-ankle sprain, he put up some incredible numbers. In just four weeks, he racked up 389 yards and four rushing touchdowns on just 72 carries-a 5.4 YPC clip.
He's also a talented pass-catcher, and again he's most dangerous when he has room to run. Even if Yeldon does start as the primary rusher, Robinson will most definitely have a role on his own, and could usurp the rookie if things don't pan out early on. With a current ADP of 206, Robinson can be had for penny on the dollar. He's no slam dunk, but you can grab him at the end of your draft and see how the situation plays out.
