This nugget at the end of Peter King's MMQB column.  This isn't explicitly about Lee, but it is potentially applicable.

 

Quote: 

Roethlisberger has a new toy, and his name is Martavis Bryant. A fourth-round pick from Clemson, Bryant is 6-4 and has traveled a strange 2014 path to this point. Inactive the first six weeks, he struggled to learn the offense. But in the four weeks he has played, Bryant has become the kind of downfield threat Antonio Brown needed to take some pressure off him.

 

Granted, there are differences in the situations.

 

Bryant has an experienced Super Bowl winning QB throwing him the ball in Roethlisberger, while Lee has a rookie in Bortles. 

 

Bryant is 6-4, while Lee is 6'.

 

Bryant has an experienced threat opposite him in Brown.  Lee...not so much.

 

But Lee has one of the best WRs coaches in the game in Sullivan coaching him.  Lee has speed to burn.

 

Lee was getting game reps while Bryant was not.

 

Lee has also, according to Bradley, performed much better in practices over the last three weeks or so.

 

If Lee can improve and become the deep threat the team envisioned when it drafted him, the offense will improve accordingly.
