Overview

Dominique Robinson is a raw but athletically gifted edge prospect. However, he is lacking in his technique and still learning the position after transitioning from being a wide receiver. There is plenty of upside, but with his age, teams will be concerned with him still learning a new position, and that could see him fall some in the draft.

His ability to change direction and the explosion off the snap is outstanding and translates well to the NFL. Even with how much he has to work on, there are enough traits to have a role on defense as a rookie. On top of that, Robinson can contribute to special teams right away.

Fit with Broncos

With Bradley Chubb and Randy Gregory, the Broncos could look at a developmental edge somewhere on day three. Dominique Robinson fills that while contributing some as a rookie on defense and special teams. There wouldn’t be a rush to get him on the field, giving the coaches time to bring Robinson along.

The issue is that Bradley Chubb is a free agent after this season, along with Malik Reed. So if Robinson isn’t ready to be a starter, they would need to either bring Chubb back or another edge. Being a starter may not happen for Robinson, so it could work out in the end. There is a lot that Robinson has to learn as he is new to the position and will be older as a rookie.
