Thoughts on Jalen Robinette, Air Force WR

Recommended Posts

Are there enough WRs and CBs in this draft to take a QB (Mahomes) in the first? I'm hoping they go QB at 10, as you shouldn't expect to have a top 10 pick again.

Totally forgot about Chris Godwin from Penn State, and I'm an alum. Where do you see him going, and is he a fit for Dennison's offense?

I think he'll go in the second, hopefully to us.

Being from the Air Force Academy wouldn't he have to fulfill an obligation to them before being allowed to play in the NFL ?

I think so,depending on his obligation. I think some see a brief summer stint,like the reserves,and others are a bit more. I could be wrong as I'm not an alum of the services,but I seem to recall different lengths of obligations

After the cases of Joe Cardona and Keenan Reynolds, the DOD announced an exemption for aspiring athletes. Trust me, I had to read up on all of this when I wrote about Robinette :D

I know Cardona split time in 2015 between the Pats and his Navy requirements. Either one is a rough day's work, doing both gets my respect. I doubt you'll see a massive shift in military recruitment for football programmes though, despite the ruling.

You wrote about Robinette? Sorry for the duplicate post.

 

Yep - http://billswire.usatoday.com/2017/02/22/bills-2017-nfl-draft-targets-air-force-wr-jalen-robinette-scouting-report/

 

If you meant being sorry for a duplicate thread, you didn't create one. Just me being vague :)

Thanx Blokes ... I knew at one time it was different, didn't know they were abit more lenient these days.
