I will never understand why former Falcons' head coach Arthur Smith used Bijan Robinson the way he did in 2023. Never. Those who drafted Robinson at the top half of the first round last year were hoping for the kind of season many expected him to have during his rookie campaign in '23, and he delivered. 15 total TDs, nearly 1,900 scrimmage yards, 61 receptions, and perhaps most importantly, 61 percent of the team's rush attempts. That's contrasted by getting only 40 percent of Atlanta's rush attempts in 2023. Bottom line: Robinson delivered the goods in a meaningful way.
Entering this third season, Robinson is already considered by some as the best all-around RB in the league. It certainly doesn't hurt that he plays behind one of the NFL's top O-lines. More than anything, I think the questions heading into last season are not relevant now. Entering training camp in 2024, Zac Robinson raised eyebrows when he praised backup RB Tyler Allgeier, saying the BYU product was "going to have a big role." Some considered it classic "coach speak" while others began questioning if they should use a top-5 pick on Robinson after his OC implied it would be some degree of a timeshare in the backfield. In the end, Allgeier was a non-factor relative to Robinson's productivity. We should expect more of the same in 2025. If you have the No.1 overall selection, Robinson should be your choice.
