Most fifth-round picks sit. The Jacksonville Jaguarsneed Robinson. New general manager David Caldwell told Alex Marvez of FoxSports.com on Tuesday that the plan is to give Robinson 10 to 15 snaps per game as a return man and running back.

We didn't mention Robinson as one of the best rookie running backs in his class -- nor should we -- but he's going to be one of the most fascinating players to watch.
