    Some teams are "very concerned" about Michigan WR/QB Denard Robinson's nerve issue according to Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. The concern is so high that Robinson's fate in the draft likely rests in the outcome of medical rechecks.

    The ailment affects Robinson's ability to open and close his hand and is the reason Robinson was switched out from under center during his senior year at Michigan. He is trying to make the transition to wide receiver but his reception skills were underwhelming at the Combine workouts. Denard Robinson is a man without a position and now he may not even make it to the NFL if teams cannot be convinced that he is healthy.

    This is bad news for Michigan fans. Robinson was a major breakout star for the team and it's a shame that his health is that bad. Hope he got a good education at Michigan.

    He should be open to special teams or DB

    His best position is clearly RB, he'll likely get used at slot WR and PR but DB is probably never going to happen

    The point I was making is that even though his skill set is as an offensive player, if his condition is an obstacle to being able to play those positions, and he still wants to play football, he'll probably have to be open to changing positions.
