Allen Robinson, WR, Chicago Bears

Average Draft Position: 4.10, WR21, 46th Overall

Along with Cooks, Robinson also changed teams this offseason, heading from the Jacksonville Jaguars to the Chicago Bears. That doesn't help his case.

Plus, believe it or not, we can probably consider this a quarterback downgrade until Mitchell Trubisky proves that he can get it done at the pro level. Among 35 quarterbacks with at least 200 drop backs in 2017, Trubisky ranked 29th in Passing NEP per drop back and 32nd in Passing Success Rate.

Despite 151 targets in 2016 (the same number that earned him a WR6 finish in 2015), Robinson finished as the WR29 in his most recent full season, due to woeful inefficiency (a 5.85 yards per target mark and a 48.3% catch rate).

Yes, that inefficiency can easily be pinned on Blake Bortles if we want to go that route, but Trubisky has yet to show himself to be a legitimate outside thrower, and he relied heavily on the slot in his rookie year. That's not where Robinson lines up.

Unlike Jeffery and Cooks, the question for Robinson isn't the volume. He'll almost assuredly plod his way to 130-plus targets without any question. But if the combination of inefficiency from both Robinson and Trubisky plague the volume, we're probably buying Robinson at his ceiling in Year 1 in Chicago.
