This is a cyclical argument and doesn't really provide much to the discussion. In other words, Robinson is a superior talent but not talented enough to move Lee out of his starting role at Z. In your words,"Robinson isn't playing Z because he can do a lot more than catch 5-yard passes."
If Robinson is so talented and can do what Lee can plus, why isn't Jack at least starting there with him and simply getting the best 11 on the field? You know like just about every team tries to do. Teams generally want their most talented players on the field.
You ask the question of why isn't Lee playing outside if he's more talented. A question that is just as applicable, more so actually, is why isn't Robinson playing inside if he's so much more talented? See, it's cyclical.
The narrative could easily be that Lee is playing the Z because he is the most talented WR on the team in the eyes of Jack and that is the opening they have currently. You know, along the lines of the earlier mention of getting the best 11 on the field one way or another.
Perhaps it's a bit of both. It's possible they are equally talented, or at least very close, just in different ways. Lee happens to fall into a more fortunate position of immediate impact thanks to his skill set where as Robinson, not so much. I could agree with this but your overriding theme of Lee sucks just again, falls short. Maybe he crash and burns in the NFL. We will see. The issue at hand is that he has immediate opportunity. Reason that away however you want, it doesn't change his opportunity. It may just cause you to miss it.
