Keenan Robinson - LB - Washington Redskins
May 17, 2012 - 10:50 AM ET

Redskins signed fourth-round ILB Keenan Robinson to a four-year contract.

Robinson is transitioning from college 4-3 weak-side linebacker to an inside 'backer in an NFL 3-4, though he won't be playing in Washington's base defense as a rookie. With long arms and cover skills, he could earn a role quickly in Jim Haslett's nickel package, though. Robinson will also run down kickoffs.
