Robinson was dismissed from the team before the season after being suspended for several incidents. He was seen as a promising player and one of the top cornerbacks on the team when he was suspended in November 2014. He just could not work his way back onto the team.
Those questions will certainly follow him to the Draft despite the talent he has. He had 16 tackles and four pass breakups as a freshman in 2013 before recording 17 tackles in eight games as a sophomore and returning starter.
Then his suspension occurred and he was dismissed from the team.
Whether Robinson gets drafted after missing an entire year with an off-field issue and suspended from the team is a question that is very much in doubt. He will have a lot to prove and a lot of questions to answer in the mean time.
