James Robinson Poised To Lead Jaguars RB Room
3 years agoJacksonville Jaguars second-year running back James Robinson is likely to "lead the [running back] room" according to SI's John Shipley. Robinson has the respect of new offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell after what he accomplished in his rookie year after going undrafted. Bevell had this to say about Robinson — "He is very physical and, you know, love what he can do with the ball in his hands and he is going to get his fair share of doing that." Robinson should approach 200 carries despite the addition of Travis Etienne to the team, but he could be phased out in the passing game for the most part. Robinson's 7th round ADP in high-stakes leagues is pretty fair, but he lacks upside due to a projected lack of receiving work.
