Anyway, I really don't think either Hagans or Robinson is any sort of short term answer for the Skins. You could look to someone like Matt Jones in Jax and see that he developed slowly down there (though he did come on at the end of the season he is also 6-5 and ran a 4.2 . . . don't see Robinson or Hagans having that same skill set). In any case, first year WR's as a rule (excluding Anquan Boldin, Terry Glenn, Randy Moss, and maybe some others who slip my mind) always struggle and you can double the probability of that happening when you are talking about switching positions. Not saying they can't be good (I guess Hines Ward is the poster child of QB's turned WR - Issac Bruce actually played QB in college too and certainly there are a ton of others) just that the Skins need someone who can play now, not in two or three years. Add to that the fact that Pat Kirwan from NFL Radio/NFL Network/NFL.com says Robinson projects more as a 3rd down back than as a WR.
