Bijan Robinson Agrees To Rookie Deal
2 years agoThe Atlanta Falcons agreed to terms with first-round running back Bijan Robinson on a four-year rookie deal on Thursday. The eighth overall pick of the 2023 NFL draft will receive $21.96 million, which is fully guaranteed and includes a fifth-year option. Seventh-round safety DeMarcco Hellams also agreed to a four-year deal. Robinson was considered the best draft prospect this year, regardless of position. The 21-year-old should become a three-down workhorse back for the Falcons sooner than later, even with sophomore Tyler Allgeier still on the roster. In a run-first offense, it means that Robinson immediately becomes an expensive RB1 in fantasy.
