Janarius Robinson

I’m going to start where FSU football has one of its biggest deficiencies on defense, and that’s a lack of playmakers at defensive end.

Enter senior Janarius Robinson.

Robinson finally began to come into his own last season, making major improvements in his game.

He nearly doubled his number of tackles and went from three to nine tackles for loss (19 percent of his tackles).

He has never been a huge sack guy and only has sacks in two games last season. However, he’s become good against the run and is the most reliable option the Noles have at the position.

We’ve seen players improve every year, and Robinson seems to fit that mold. If the Noles can get his level of consistency coupled with the continued growth we’ve seen from year to year with him?

I think the Noles would take that, not to mention the impact Adam Fuller’s style of defense could have on his production.
