He must have had some pretty impressive workouts. That's the only thing i can think of. He all of a sudden came out of nowhere in the mocks.
That's alright. It is to be expected. Maybe some of it is my fault, but i don't know how it could be.
Post from November 23, 2012 From your own posts, he was on the radar all season. He slipped a bit and then came back up. Not all that uncommon.
Yeah, but he had a not so good combine performance and everytime the mocks would update he had dropped until he was not even considered to be drafted. It stayed that way up until the day before the draft.
Another solid first half from Roberson. He's scared to shoot the 3 though - and from the form, rightly so.

I see conflicting salaries on websites, but one has him at 80% his first year of his contract and the standard 120% every other year. ~400k difference. Not sure why he'd take the smaller contract as a rookie, but thought it was interesting.
Sorry, wrong player. Roberson reminds me of Faried with his motor and rebounding. Jeffrey Taylor reminds me of Battier.
Couldn't have made up this bit of irony to this thread if we tried. Roberson is a non-offense 1-way projected player as can be. Still, thats NOT to slight Roberson. He is one of those players that can find a niche and fill a role on a team. Useful glue-guy.
