Robbery is a 2nd degree felony under the current Texas Penal Code and carries a punishment range of 2-20 years. Attempted Robbery is a 3rd degree felony and has a punishment range of 2-10 years. The other offenses described in the question are too vague for ascertaining the potential punishment range, but they would probably be less severe than Robbery.
