C.Biscuit97 Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 I like Brooks as our #4 CB and he's a good special teamer. He also has awesome dreads.
RevWarRifleman Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Infernus, a big heads up to you for posting this. Robey is one of the bright young players on the rise for our team. I know that 6 - 10, yet again, was not the season any of us wanted. But its guys like him that makes me feel a little better about the future. Go Bills, 2014!!
Mark Vader Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 That was fun to watch. My favorite play was the tackle on McCluster in the Chiefs game. As I remember that was a 3rd & 1 play? It was great watching Robey grow throughout the season. He definitely took his lumps(Bengals & Saints games) but as the season went on, he was just outstanding. He's definitely ahead of Brooks, and I look forward to how Robey plays next year. Question for all of you: Is Robey strictly a nickel & dime CB, or can he be a starting CB in this league?
Rubes Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 This speaks to the mentality of some around here. Robey was a damn good nickel cb all year and wasn't drafted & didn't have any baggage (except he's short). Rogers had like 10 catches playing with Andrew Luck with a bunch of wr injuries & had a bunch of baggage. Yet, Robey gets 1 page while Rogers gets 50. Makes sense. To be fair, this is (at least) the third Robey appreciation thread in the past couple of weeks. To be completely fair, all three of those threads don't add up to 50 pages, but still. Three threads. Question for all of you: Is Robey strictly a nickel & dime CB, or can he be a starting CB in this league? I would say strictly nickel/dime. He doesn't have the height to match up on the outside as a starter, as much as I think he has the talent.
DrDawkinstein Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Excellent video! Whoever made this did an amazing job. And Robey makes for great film! One of the best pure tacklers I've seen in a while. If everyone tackled like him, like you're supposed to, there wouldnt be any concussion controversy. Can't wait to watch more of this kid in a Bills uniform!
Smears Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Thanks to the person that put this together and posted it on the internet. A great find by our scouts. Marrone seemed to have something to do with this signing. Glad he is here. Nothing but upside
Gray Beard Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Thanks for posting. He knows that as a little guy, he MUST tackle by wrapping up the legs. Reminds me of Antoine Winfield.
3rdand12 Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Love this kid. We hit the jackpot. Yes indeed . I had no idea . What a great highlight film . Really just impressive . long term contract asap.: )) someone said he couldn't play the outside corner position . I say Malarkey. look how many times he was alone with no one over the top !\ Both he and Alonso play on another level . recognition speed angles and great contact at the ball. Yep best draft ever. And we got Robey too Jackpot !!
boyst Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 So glad the video had a good backdrop of music and not that hardcore wanna be gangster stuff. Great video
swnybillsfan Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Robey was given every chance to succeed, with one team, from day one. Rogers situation was nowhere near that...and his position coach (in Buffalo) was a bum. The problem is, people not wanting a talented player on this team...because he does not act like a choir boy 24/7. i disagree with this. from what i was hearing (all second hand), rogers was not taking his chance as serious as he could, while robey was putting in all the work and making the most of every opportunity he got. and there is the difference, rogers put the coaches in a position where they couldn't put him on the field, robey put them in a position where they couldn't take him off. love this guy!

l< j Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 I think I read he is only 21? So he still hasn't hit his growth spurt yet? kj

Favorite of mine too and yes that was on third down. Clutch play. BTW, great find and thanks for sharing.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 but he may not be a Bill next year edit remove an unneeded S edit added an N to uneeded One more edit and you have the makings of a pretty decent haiku.
infernus Posted January 9, 2014 Author Posted January 9, 2014 I don't know if I could name a favorite play, but I definitely enjoyed the way it seemed Robey improved throughout the season. As the film went on he appeared to be making more and more big plays.
MyHorseAteTheKid Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Sign this guy to a new long term contract... lock him up for the long haul!!!!
Kirby Jackson Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Best UDFA ever? Jason Peters and Pat Williams are certainly ahead of him as Bills. Overall, I would probably say Kurt Warner.
