NCAAF College Football News, Photos, Stats, Scores, Schedule & Videos...

Summer is here, and it is everyone’s favorite time of the year, scouting time. Every year, we do Summer Scouting to preview college football for Bucs fans, but also give them an idea of names to follow and watch in the fall as needs pop up for Tampa Bay. 

Are we going to write about quarterbacks? Offensive tackles? Edge rushers? You know it, but why? Because other NFL teams will draft them, just as they will draft every other position. It all matters whether these players end up on the Bucs, the Bears, or the Steelers. We write these so Bucs fans can be the most informed fans. 

So if you are still with us, enjoy our latest Summer Scouting report as we prepare you for the Fall.

Player Summary

Duce Robinson is a big presence in the Florida State offense, both literally and figuratively. He uses his size and strength to overpower defenders in coverage and with the ball in his hands on the ground. He also showcases himself as one of the best contested catch receivers in the landscape of college football. Between that and his ability to extend his routes for his quarterback, he should be a favorite in any offense he finds himself in.
