Quote:I agree. Jag fans tend to fall to quickly in love with a guy who looks good over a span of games. Let's see a body of work first and see if he can stay healthy for an extended period of time before even thinking about paying him.

 

There's nothing wrong with this approach, however the risk is you lose him to free agency, where a bidding war is likely to ensue. I'd rather lock him up (at a discount) right now, and bet on him staying healthy, it seems like the issues with his hamstrings etc... were fluky. There have been plenty of players (Jimmy Smith comes to mind) that couldn't stay healthy there first 2-4 years in the league, only to "blow up" afterwards. Lee has all the makings for that type of player.
