4 reasons to love Allen Robinson signing with the Los Angeles Rams (unknown)

Matthew Stafford has a new wide receiver that meshes with his style perfectly...hand meet glove.

This is a trait that will mesh beautifully with Matthew Stafford and his willingness to give his guys a few 50/50 passes. They now have this in Robinson; a player that can go up and get it. Robinson is a gifted athlete and a special receiver.

Rams add WR Robinson, still eye OBJ (unknown)

The Rams have agreed to to a three-year, $45 million contract with wide receiver Allen Robinson, a source told ESPN.

Coming off back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons in 2019 and 2020, the Chicago Bears placed the franchise tag ($17.8 million) on Robinson and failed to work out a long-term deal with the 28-year-old receiver ahead of the 2021 season. His targets shrank from 9.4 per game in 2020 to 5.5 in 2021 for a total of 38 catches for 410 yards and one touchdown last season. The 6-foot-3 receiver was a second-round pick by Jacksonville in 2014. The big-bodied receiver has lined up predominantly outside but was a threat from the slot during his last 1,000-yard season. Combined, he had 48 receptions for 593 yards in 12 games in a Rams uniform. The wide receiver's relationship with the franchise soured and led to Robinson compiling one of the worst seasons of his career.

Allen Robinson to the Rams earns high mark, Bills add to defensive line (unknown)

A breakdown of the biggest free agent signings on the second day of the 2022 league year.

The Patriots are signing the wide receiver/running to a two-year deal. The Bengals needed to find themselves a tight end after losing C. J. Uzomah to the Jets in free agency and were able to land Hurst on a one-year deal. After being released by the Cardinals on Wednesday, it didn't take long for Phillips to find a new -- and familiar -- home as he returned to the Buffalo Bills on a one-year deal. In his first season with the Falcons, Hurst did flash some of that first-round potential, catching a career-high 571 yards and six touchdowns. The rich get richer in Los Angeles. The Rams were able to agree to a three-year, $46.5 million deal with former Bears wide receiver. Atlanta added the former Pro Bowl corner to its secondary after the two sides agreed on a two-year, $11 million contract.

Grading the Rams' addition of Allen Robinson (unknown)

Seemingly every year since Sean McVay arrived in 2017, the Los Angeles Rams have made a meaningful addition at wide receiver. That trend continued this week ...

There was nothing wrong with the Rams’ receiving corps before adding Robinson, but their wideouts were all kind of similar. But as it stands right now, it’s hard not to like the addition of Robinson to this offense. Where Robinson also carries a lot of value is in the red zone. He hasn’t had a quarterback with the willingness or ability to throw it deep like Matthew Stafford does, so we should see even more big plays from him in a Rams uniform. Robinson also lines up in the slot and isn’t strictly an outside receiver. Kupp and Woods are good in those situations, too, they don’t elevate and make grabs over defenders the way Robinson does.

Bears’ free-agent WR search starts as Allen Robinson’s ends (unknown)

On Thursday, the Bears agreed to add two receivers on one-year deals, sources confirmed: the Chiefs' Byron Pringle and the Packers' Equanimeous St. Brown.

O’Donnell, who was drafted in 2014, played for two general managers and three coaches with the Bears, not counting Poles and coach Matt Eberflus.  Running back Damien Williams, who scored three touchdowns for the Bears last year, agreed to sign a one-year deal with the Falcons on Thursday, a source confirmed, while former Bears offensive lineman Alex Bars joined the Raiders. But plants in Romeoville, elsewhere burned more in 2021 than a year before. Burning coal to create electricity will be largely banned in Illinois in 2030. Pringle, 28, caught 42 regular-season passes for 568 yards and five touchdowns last year with the Chiefs, for whom Ryan Poles worked before being named the Bears’ general manager in January. In the playoffs, Pringle totaled 12 catches for 82 yards and three touchdowns — with two coming in the wild-card round against the Steelers.  The 6-1, 201-pound Pringle, a one-time undrafted free agent from Kansas State, will get $4 million and can make another $2 million in incentives. Robinson spent his first four years with the Jaguars and four more with the Bears, who gave him the franchise tag for a disappointing 2021 season. Robinson, who had spent the last two years looking for a long-term deal from the Bears that never came, signed a three-year deal with the defending Super Bowl champion Rams. He’ll get $30.7 million fully guaranteed and $46.5 million overall, a source said. In the last two years alone, Robinson had four different quarterbacks start at least six games: Justin Fields, Nick Foles, Mitch Trubisky and Andy Dalton. After starting the new league year Wednesday with only two receivers on the roster who caught a pass last year — Darnell Mooney, with whom Fields has been training at Georgia Tech, and second-year wideout Dazz Newsome, who had two receptions — Fields will have new faces to target in 2022. He had only nine catches for 98 yards last year and seven for 117 yards in 2020. He had 21 receptions for 328 yards as a rookie in 2018 before spending 2019 on injured reserve with an ankle injury. St. Brown is the second former Packers offensive player to join new Bears coordinator Luke Getsy, who was a Green Bay assistant for all but one season from 2014-21. Allen Robinson finally found a team willing to pay him — and a high-level quarterback to throw him the ball. On Thursday, the Bears agreed to add two receivers on one-year deals, sources confirmed: the Chiefs’ Byron Pringle and the Packers’ Equanimeous St. Brown.

Robinson will have Matthew Stafford, by far the best quarterback with whom he has ever played, throwing him the ball.

6 takeaways from Rams' deal with WR Allen Robinson (unknown)

The Rams added another star receiver to their offense, bringing in Allen Robinson. What does it mean for the offense and LA's other WRs?

Stafford loves receivers in that mold and should thrive with Robinson lining up as the X receiver outside. During his career with the Lions, Stafford had a chance to play with Calvin Johnson, Kenny Golladay and Marvin Jones, who were all downfield threats with the ability to win a jump ball. Woods and Jefferson could potentially be used as trade chips now, with the Rams attempting to add draft picks or starters at other positions by dealing one of their starting receivers. The list of quarterbacks Robinson has had to play with throughout his career, including college, is not a pretty one. Now with Robinson joining an already-deep receiver group, it’s even harder to see a path to playing time for Atwell in 2022. And that doesn’t even include Tutu Atwell, who the Rams used a second-round pick on last year.

Allen Robinson signs 3-year deal with Rams (unknown)

Robinson exits as one of the most productive wide receivers in Bears history despite their offensive struggles during his brief stay.

Despite never playing with a top-tier quarterback, Robinson still has three 1,000-yard seasons under his belt, proving to be a productive receiver no matter the situation.

At 6-foot-3, he brings size and physicality that the Rams don’t currently have at the position. Matthew Stafford had receivers who could do that in Detroit – Calvin Johnson, Kenny Golladay, Marvin Jones Jr. – and now he has one in L. A. with Robinson. They aren’t the types of receivers who elevate over a defender to come down with difficult grabs in tight coverage.

Sean McVay's offense receives more help as Rams agree to deal with Allen Robinson (unknown)

The Rams added to a formidable attack by agreeing to a three-year deal with receiver Allen Robinson as Robert Woods and free agent OBJ deal with injuries.

He played in 12 games, catching 38 passes, one for a touchdown. Robinson, 28, played at Penn State and was a second-round pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2014 draft. The Rams now have three receivers with hefty salary-cap numbers. This is the second year in a row that the Rams have acquired a high-profile receiver in March. Before last season, they signed veteran DeSean Jackson, a move made to provide the strong-armed Stafford with a deep threat. Beckham’s potential market suffered because of the injury. In 2018, Robinson signed a three-year, $42-million contract with the Chicago Bears. He caught 98 passes for 1,147 yards and seven touchdowns in 2019, and followed that performance with 102 catches for 1,250 yards and six touchdowns in 2020.

By joining Los Angeles Rams, Allen Robinson II finally gets to play with a top-shelf QB (unknown)

Robinson goes from having to prop up the likes to Blake Bortles and Mitch Trubisky to joining Matthew Stafford and the Rams' offensive juggernaut.

Should the Rams re-sign Beckham, they'll boast him and Robinson as their primary outside receivers, with the likes of Kupp and Woods being able to play in the slot. The Rams might provide the best place for Robinson to do all three of those things. After dealing with an ankle and hamstring injury as well as COVID-19 last season, which combined to cause him to miss five games, Robinson had a career-low 410 receiving yards on 38 receptions with only one touchdown reception.
