Contrary to popular belief, Robinson was actually well-fed in the receiving game last year; his 58 catches on 86 targets actually did a pretty nice job of inflating his overall production to buoy him to an overall RB9 finish in PPR formats. However, the primary issue with Arthur Smith’s use of Bijan in 2023 was in the ground game, where he split carries nearly down the middle with Tyler Allgeier 214-186. It’s no disrespect to Allgeier, who totaled over 1000 yards on the ground in 2022 on an even worse Falcons team than 2023’s; he’s a very solid running back in his own right. But with a talent like Bijan in the same backfield (and in the thick of his prime at 22 years old), not getting him more than 250 attempts on the ground was nothing short of a crime. Smith’s failure to properly utilize Robinson was only magnified by the struggles of Desmond Ridder and Taylor Heinicke at quarterback, especially when the Falcons’ offensive line sported the sixth-highest overall PFF run blocking grade in the league. The good news is that it sounds like the new regime is interested in not only increasing Robinson’s touches on the ground this season, but also in other areas as well. Any increase in opportunities from his 300 last season would be a welcome development for fantasy managers looking to draft the Falcons RB in 2024.
