[edit] Early years
Robiskie attended Chagrin Falls High School, where he set numerous school records as a wide receiver. [2]
[edit] College career
Robiskie saw little playing time in his freshman and sophomore season at Ohio State, but caught the winning touchdown pass in Ohio State's annual rivalry game with Michigan in 2006, and was named a starter his junior season. His performance in the 2007 season helped the Buckeyes advance to the 2008 BCS National Championship Game. Robiskie's receptions and yards were down in the 2008 season with new freshman quarterback Terrelle Pryor at the helm, but he was still a highly touted prospect coming into the 2009 NFL Draft.
[edit] Professional career
ESPN analyst Michael Smith referred to Robiskie as the "most sure thing in the (2009) draft."[citation needed] He was picked in the second round, 36th overall by the Cleveland Browns.
On November 1, 2011, Robiskie was waived by the Cleveland Browns in order to clear a roster slot to sign running back Thomas Clayton.[3] Robiskie was claimed off waivers by the Jacksonville Jaguars on November 2.
