While Lee figures to be “the guy” in the Jaguars passing game, how does he stack up with other No. 1 pass catchers in the NFL? A recent story on ESPN.com discusses each team’s top wide receiver and how they are perceived by the local beat writers. Lee is in the second tier of pass catchers, but not formally thought of as a true No. 1 guy.
