New Orleans Saints Select CB Patrick Robinson 32nd Overall
By Editorial Staff
In an NFL Draft first, Super Bowl MVP (and 2010 Madden NFL cover athlete), Drew Brees announced the pick for the Champion Saints.
Brees announced that his team had used it’s selection to take cornerback Patrick Robinson from Florida State.
Robinson is not very consistent, nor is he a big play threat managing only one interception in his final two seasons at Florida State.
However, Robinson is regarded as having the quickest, and best, feet of any cornerback in the draft.
He also gives the Saints a few possibilities and maneuverability should the team not be able to re-sign free agent Darren Sharper.
With a high experience in press coverage, he will allow the Saints to move 2009’s first round pick, Malcolm Jenkins, into Sharper’s position should he not be back in 2010.
If Sharper does return, Robinson will just provide even more depth to a Saints’ secondary that was 28th in the league in pass defense.
