Potential Bengals Late-Round Draft Target Reveals Desire To Play For Dad's Favorite Team

Cincinnati hosted Robinson for a top-30 draft visit on Tuesday. It was his final visit ahead of next week's draft, April 23-25.

"I loved to watch football," Robinson told Schultz. "And no matter what it was, I was just always very intrigued by the game. So I would watch any team. I'd watch the Rams, I'd watch the Bengals. I'd watch the Browns. Any team, obviously, would be a blessing to play for, but my dad always watched the Bengals. He was a big Bengals fan, so it'd be really cool to play for them, and of course, every other team."

According to the Mock Draft Database's consensus big board, Robinson is ranked 181st overall, making him a great candidate for one of Cincinnati's two sixth-round picks (No. 189 and No. 199).

It makes a ton of sense to boost the defensive line depth with Robinson, who would be ranked much higher if he weighed in at a larger size than 5-foot-11, 293 pounds.

"I think we can, and just interviewing a lot of the guys the last couple of days, I can't get into names, whatever, but just really impressed with a lot of them and the recall of their systems, and that's the most important thing," Bengals defensive coordinator said about helping the defensive line in the draft. "It's not really a function of what you teach them or what you know; it's a function of how well they recall their systems, what nuances they can grasp, and how well they can relate those concepts to the big picture, as well as how effectively they communicate that. And it's been exciting to go through that process with a lot of these guys and just a lot of really, really good young talent that we've met."
