Brian Robiskie a sleeper for 2009

The Browns took Ohio St. wideout Brian Robiskie with the 36th pick in the draft. Robiskie isn't a super-big guy, and he's not a super-fast guy. But he's a wonderful route-runner, he's got immaculate hands, and he's pretty much ready to play right away. He probably doesn't have the upside of any of the receivers who went ahead of him, but I believe he'll wind up in the top two or three in terms of fantasy impact for rookie receivers in 2009. When you think Robiskie, think Eddie Royal, folks. If the Browns get decent quarterback play from someone in their stable (Derek Anderson, Brady Quinn, now Brett Ratliff), Robiskie can have that kind of consistent week-to-week impact on your fantasy team. I think Michael Crabtree will probably outdo him this year, and I give Jeremy Maclin a chance to do so. After that, in '09, Robiskie might be the sleeper to draft, especially since receiver is such a huge position of need in Cleveland.
