He's a nice player, but you're committing a solid chunk of your cap space (>25%) to a player who hasn't demonstrated consistently that he can stay healthy.

It doesn't neglect it at all. Fine, ten seasons to look at prior to this one--and in seven of those, he played in most of his team's games. This past season is not an outlier.
