Of the 11 University of Kentucky football players eligible for this year’s NFL Draft, Wan’Dale Robinson is likely to generate the most excitement for whichever fan base he’s playing for this fall (and for fantasy football owners looking to build depth down their roster).

Slight, but speedy and strong, Robinson as the featured receiver for the Wildcats was a delight to watch in 2021. He set single-season school records for receiving yardage and total receptions in his only season at UK. The 2018 Mr. Football winner and reigning Kentucky Sports Figure of the Year spent his first two seasons at Nebraska and was used often as a running back. His experiences and frame have elicited comparisons to Deebo Samuel in terms of how he might be used at the next level. Most mock drafts project Robinson to go in the third or fourth round.

Which team will select him? Who knows. What we’re more curious about is this: For which team do YOU want Robinson to play? Should one of Kentucky’s favorite sons play in nearby Cincinnati with Joe Burrow? Would a reunion with Liam Coen in Los Angeles be the best fit? What about a team-up with fellow ex-Cat Randall Cobb in Green Bay?

Let us know what you think! You can vote for one of the 32 teams below, and may vote as many times as you’d like. (If you’re having any trouble viewing the poll, try turning off your ad blocker.)
