LAR WR Allen Robinson - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Dallas Cowboys

Allen Robinson has been once again one of the biggest disappointments early in the 2022 season. Through Week 4 he has only eclipsed three receptions and 25 yards in one game. That contest came back in Week 2 vs. the Atlanta Falcons where Robinson secured 4-53-1. Sean McVay has addressed the Robinson situation a few times chalking it up to how defenses have been playing the Rams. The good news is we have the numbers so let’s see if that’s the case. The Rams have faced the Bills (17th), Cardinals (26th), and 49ers (25th) in fantasy points allowed to outside wide receivers. We could make the argument that Robinson faced a healthier Bills secondary in Week 1 which does prove that his matchups have been difficult.

This week Robinson does get another tough matchup vs. a Cowboys defense that has allowed the 18th most fantasy points out wide. Robinson’s floor has been so low that even an “improved” matchup vs. the Cowboys shouldn’t excite us to start Robinson. We don’t advise that you drop Robinson as he should improve by mid-season. However, until we see him start producing vs. middle-of-the-pack matchups, it’s best to leave him on benches.

LAR WR Allen Robinson - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at San Francisco 49ers

Allen Robinson had a touchdown in Week 2, but he’s been otherwise very disappointing given his fantasy draft capital over the offseason. Robinson has been held to just seven catches for 88 yards through three games, and the Rams’ passing offense has struggled to find the electricity they showed last year during their Super Bowl run.

This week, Robinson has a tough matchup against the 49ers, though Tyler Lockett and Courtland Sutton have put up decent enough fantasy lines in consecutive weeks against them. Still, Robinson is too risky to bank on until he shows he can produce and we have him ranked outside of starter territory this week. Sit him.

LAR WR Allen Robinson - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Arizona Cardinals

A week after Allen Robinson was an afterthought in the passing game he rebounded nicely in Week 2, securing a 4-53-1 receiving line vs. the Falcons. Robinson nearly had a second TD, but the officials negated the score due to a medical timeout called before the ball was snapped. Still, it was clear the Rams wanted to get Robinson involved, and that his Week 1 performance had more to do with the Bills than Robinson himself. Robinson does still have room to grow in this offense as he was well behind Cooper Kupp (14) and Tyler Higbee (9) in the target pecking order.

This week the Rams will get another solid matchup as they take on the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals have allowed double-digit fantasy points to multiple wide receivers in the first two weeks. The downside is the Cardinals have been solid on the perimeter allowing just 17.5 PPR PPG on the outside. This includes holding Davante Adams to a pedestrian 2-12-1 receiving line. Robinson is still a solid option as both Robert Woods (4-48-1) and Odell Beckham (6-77-1) / (4-54-1) played well last year vs. the Cardinals. However, Robinson should be viewed as more of a WR3/flex instead of the WR2 you drafted him as for Week 3.

LAR WR Allen Robinson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. Atlanta Falcons

Allen Robinson’s Week 1 dud has left a lot of people in the fantasy community in a frenzy. After being drafted in the fifth round in most leagues, Robinson laid a giant 1-12 receiving line egg in our starting lineups. We should have seen this poor performance coming vs. an elite Bills defense. Last season the Bills allowed the fewest fantasy points to outside WRs. Additionally, Robinson’s playing time usage was still elite. Robinson only ran two fewer routes than Kupp, and his 96% routes run to drop-back % was the third highest rate in the NFL.

This week the Rams will get a much softer matchup as they take on the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons allowed the 11th-most fantasy points to the outside in 2021. Last week Jarvis Landry and Michael Thomas were both able to finish inside the top 20 for wide receivers. This matchup should allow Robinson to bounce back right away making him a WR2 in Week 2.

LAR WR Allen Robinson - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Buffalo Bills

Coming off a disappointing year, many believe Allen Robinson is washed. Ignore that noise. Still an elite wide receiver, he is finally playing with a good quarterback. With Kupp potentially drawing the top coverage, Robinson may find himself in favorable matchups against the Bills. In a game projected to be a shootout, Robinson makes for a good flex play with WR2 upside.

LAR WR Allen Robinson - 2022 Fantasy Football Outlook

2022 Fantasy Upside
Fantasy drafters have waited eight years for Allen Robinson to play with an elite quarterback. The 28-year-old wideout finally has that chance with the Rams, and the potential exists for Robinson to have his best season since his 1,400-yard, 14 touchdown campaign in 2014. He brings elite size, burst, and a massive catch radius: great assets for Matthew Stafford to utilize in one of the NFL’s best offensive attacks. Now serving as the WR2 alongside Cooper Kupp, Robinson should have an even bigger mismatch against opposing defenses. His ADP has continued to rise throughout the summer in high-stakes fantasy leagues.

2022 Fantasy Downside
The presence of Kupp certainly limits Robinson’s upside, and fantasy drafters may be forgetting that with his fast-rising ADP. Robinson served as the alpha wide receiver in both Jacksonville and Chicago, how will he adjust to being the team’s WR2? It is also worth noting he is coming off his worst overall season of his career, tallying just 38 receptions, 410 receiving yards, and one touchdown in 12 games played.

2022 Bottom Line
There is certainly reason for optimism with Robinson on the Rams, and his talent has waited for an opportunity to play with a quarterback like Matthew Stafford. He is being drafted as a low-end WR2, on a team that has already shown it can support multiple Top-24 wideouts with Kupp and Robert Woods. His fantasy ceiling may be capped, but Robinson’s talent in this offense should reinforce a low-end WR2 floor.

CHI WR Allen Robinson - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. New York Giants

Allen Robinson has only played in one game since Week 9. At first, he was sidelined with a hamstring injury, and then he had to sit out while being on the COVID/Reserve list. He's since been activated from the COVID list, but Robinson said he lost 10 pounds and is "still trying to feel normal" earlier this week after returning to the team. As of now, it appears A-Rob will return to the lineup, although fantasy owners who drafted him may not have made it this far thanks to his forgetful season. Even when Robinson was healthy, he wasn't productive, averaging 3.2 receptions for 35.3 yards with one total touchdown in 10 games. Robinson is in WR5 range for Week 17.
