When you've got a franchise QB, what is a Demarcus Robinson in the grand scheme of that franchise's glory years with that QB? Robinson is nothing more than a supporting character that we briefly read about in the initial chapters of the our hero's epic story. He interacts for our hero intermittently for a few pages here and there, and then he leaves. And when that character's time is done, the reader maybe says, "Oh, I liked him," but they are soon treated to more adventures with other supporting characters, many of them a lot cooler and more important to our hero's entire arc. As Pat's career progresses through its timeline, one-by-one everybody is going to eventually leave him through cuts, bigger contracts, retirement, or trades. Even his own head coach, most likely. When the day comes to replace one of his bookend tackles or Travis Kelce or Tyreek Hill, that will be a big deal. When Demarcus Robinson leaves? Oh, wouldn't you know... it turns out random undrafted guy from last year's practice squad is doing a pretty good job as the 4th WR. And years from that point, we'll all go, "Hey, remember that one WR Pat used to play with earlier in his career? It wasn't Tyreek... no, not thinking of Watkins... no, Gehrig Dieter is still with the team, idiot... wait, I remember now! Yeah! Lemarcus Robertson!" |

DeMarcus Robinson is that fat kid with the trumpet at the beggining of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

Here's another test for you.
Take Peyton Manning's first 3 years in the league. Anybody remember who was his 3rd WR in his 3rd season? Yeah, he had Marvin Harrison and rookie Reggie Wayne. Who was the 3rd guy? He had been with Manning for his entire career up until he left after Manning's third season. Just like Robinson is gonna do. Okay, time's up. The correct answer is Jerome Pathon. No, I didn't expect anybody to know that. That name even sound familiar to you? Vaguely? Would you have remembered or thought of that guy on your own if I didn't bring up his name just now? Didn't think so. |

If Robinson is fine with making chump change, I'm glad to have him back on the team for another couple of seasons.
If I were Robinson, however, I'd probably go test the market a little bit in free agency next year to see what I could get. Whatever he decides is fine, but what we need to avoid at all costs is a classic Brett Veach overpay. I could easily see the negotiations ballooning his extension into a $4 million+ AAV deal, similar to what Dorsey gave ****ing Daniel ****ing Sorensen. And that just can't happen. Robinson isn't worth that. He's too easily replaceable for us to pay him that shit. |

Cliff Notes: PM2 lost his phone, he and Dieter walked around in the dark wearing only their underwear looking for it, they found it in the bathroom.

Mahomes is a Madden cheat code. The new Bo Jackson in Tecmo Bowl.
