Keilan Robinson, Running Back

The highest ranked of the three is Alabama transfer Keilan Robinson, who came in at No. 34. He saw limited action while at Alabama as he was stuck behind Najee Harris and Brian Robinson. As a freshman, he accumulated 254 yards and two touchdowns on 39 carries. He also returned one kick on the year. Alabama was just so deep at every position he was unable to shine, as he also can go out wide and play receiver, but again Alabama was not lacking depth there either with the Heisman winner and first round pick DeVonta Smith on one side and first round pick Jalen Waddle on the other. Even after Waddle’s injury, there were other talented players like John Metchie and Slade Bolden ready and waiting.

Robinson took to the portal to follow his offensive coordinator who is now the head coach, and the gadget player is hoping to make plays all over the field. Here is what ESPN had to say:

Robinson can do a little bit of everything and transferred in from Alabama, where Steve Sarkisian was his offensive coordinator. Now his head coach at Texas, Sarkisian will be able to utilize Robinson in the run and pass game and as a combo with running back Bijan Robinson.
