+++ = probable 2003 starter
<< = probable 2003 53-man roster, non-starter
~ = hard to say, depends on training camp performance
and/or injuries as to making the 2003 53-man roster
_ = improbable to make the 2003 53-man roster
Ratings explained: Based on perceived likelihoods and
guesstimates ... all rookie free agent signings rated "_"
at this time, though that may change as mini-camps and
training camp progresses ... the difference between
"<<" and "~" very debatable, and very dependent upon
what transpires in mini-camps and training camp and
what occurs due to injuries ... also, players to make the
53-man roster may vary from last year's numbers due
to significant coaching / philosophical changes

He's not needed at TE. This position has been filled out quite well.
As a Long Snapper, I don't feel they will pay him that salary when Jeff Grau
performed well last season.
Grau could even be a roster casualty if Al Johnson can perform the LS
duties.
Prediction: Robinson will be a June 1st cut.
