He's been pretty solid this season when given a opportunity to play. But I think they should still bring in either a rookie or second tier vet to compete with Lee.

Love Lee's fire and explosive speed. Might be a little undersized but this new nfl suites that. I think he has the potential to develop into a good starter for this team.

Definitely. He's shown quite a bit of development from last year to the end of this year. I like the work the LBs coaches have done with our current core. I do think we need to find another LB in free agency or the draft though.

He actually lost weight to fit this scheme...for what that's worth.

Isn't he 6'3? Guy doesn't look small on the field.

It shouldn't come as a surprise that the defense has been significantly better since Reuben got s**t canned and Malcolm Smith returned to form(aka injured). Lee has outplayed both of them at Will LB this season. Dude has the traits they like at WLB in this scheme, too. Don't sleep on him keeping the job.

(snipped)

You think the team will be fine with Lee in 2019 at WLB or do you think they should spend a day 2 pick at this position? It's a critical position in this defense so 'solid' is not good enough imo. I'd like a playmaker here.

Look to upgrade for sure.

Please don't tell me Malcolm Smith will still make the team.. PLEASSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEE don't tell me we'll continue to waste more money on the guy..

" Bruce The Dragon " Lee here can still be developing and his production will be as good as Smith's and will cost us lesser as well..
Warner, Alexander and Lee would probably make the fastest LB corp
