What to do about Lee?

For this year? Easy. You replace Wilson with Lee on Running Downs and let LVE and Jaylon run in the Nickel.

Yep. Get all 3 on the field. It's just crazy talk to keep Lee off the field for Damien Wilson.

On pass downs, we could still play with all 3 a lot, particularly near the goal line. Lee and LVE play nickel zone, Jaylon plays like an in the box SS. Blitzes, covers TE in man.

If Lee is still here next year, I'd play him WLB, Jaylon SLB, and LVE at MLB.

This year, maybe just put in Lee at SLB, as I trust him to pick it up mid season, but don't trust LVE and Jaylon to make a change so easily.

You play him until he has to retire. Pick your spots.

Run downs. Goal line.

Replace Wilson in 3 LB formations...

It's not overly complicated is it?

Too old, too injury prone and too much salary to trade.

LVE is insanely talented but Sean Lee is still an All Pro when healthy. Damien Wilson is going to leave as a FA after this year anyway,

Lee was All Pro in 2016. I doubt he ever makes it again. Still too good to be on the bench, particularly for Wilson.

I think Lee is the best defensive player we got ...

That said, maybe its time to trade him ? ... It depends on how hard he hits the cap , because he gets hurt so much .

Let him stay where he at

It’s 55 and 54’s world.

50 is now there to ensure they don’t get too tired.

Maybe a series for each a half until he blows a hammy again

Definitely for next year.

I was referring to when he returns this season.

That was the purpose of my post, this year. When healthy he's still one of the better LB's in the league.

It's weird. In the past it was like clockwork. Lee gets injured and our D falls apart. Now he gets injured and our D is stout.
