WATCH: Wan'Dale Robinson is much stronger than the normal human

Wan’Dale Robinson is listed at just 5-foot-8, 178 pounds (at least that’s what NFL.com tells us), but he’s still the last person you’d want to get into a cage match with.
During Kentucky Football’s annual Pro Day, which was held at Nutter Field House on Friday, Robinson saddled up on the bench press where he blasted 19 repetitions of 225 pounds. It was more than enough to get a reaction out of associate head coach Vince Marrow, who said on the broadcast that Robinson was the “toughest pound for pound (kid) I’ve ever been around”.
The former Wildcat pass-catcher has been projected to get picked during the first three rounds of this month’s NFL Draft, although he just continues to boost his stock. Robinson recently ran a 4.44-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine. He’s been doing just everything he’s needed to do in order to hear his name called early in the draft.
Marrow commented during the video below that a scout told him 15 reps at 225 pounds would be impressive for somebody of Robinson’s size. I wonder what the scouts think about him tacking on four more?

If you’ve ever seen a picture of Robinson’s father, Dale, you know exactly where the future NFL Draftee got his genes from.
Back in February, ESPN‘s Todd McShay was effusive with his praise of Robinson, comparing him to current San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel.
“I’m excited to see what he can do in the league. He’s a slot receiver. He’s a jitterbug. He has everything you need in terms of a slot receiver,” McShay said. “Some guys have that lateral shiftiness and then some guys have that big burst of acceleration. He’s got both of them. I’m not saying he’s Deebo Samuel, but he’s kind of got that in him where he can do both things.”
The 2022 NFL Draft is set to run from April 28 through April 30.
