10 fantasy takeaways from the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft

I’m not sure there was a bigger winner than Allen Robinson on draft night.

The stud receiver was faced with another season of dealing with below-average quarterback play after Andy Dalton was placed as the Bears’ starter. Thankfully, it was not to be Robinson's destiny. The long-suffering franchise reversed course and traded up for Justin Fields.

For the first time in his football life, Allen Robinson will be paired with a quarterback who can match his skills. This is quite literally a football miracle.

Sure, could Fields go the way of other “promising” young passers tethered to Robinson — like Blake Bortles and Mitchell Trubisky — and just not work out?
