Dion Lewis value? Future?

Postby dipANDglide » Fri Dec 08, 2017 1:14 pm

What's his value in a 12 team, ppr league? I'm pretty sure he's a FA after this year, any thoughts on his long term prospects? Thanks

He's a talented player for sure. I like him wherever he is playing because he is versatile. Only needs 12-15 touches per game to make an impact in fantasy. He was a PPR stud just a couple of years ago and the only reason he's not getting a bunch of catches is because Burkhead and White are better receiving backs.

He's a less-dominant version of Jordan Reed in running back form. I would sell for a 2nd in a heart beat.

Sure, he only needs 12-15 touches to be startable, as long as he's playing for the best team in the league. If he goes anywhere else, he's not gonna have near that same efficiency.

A mid 2nd seems about right. I think he can be a decent low-end RB2 most weeks.

I think on any other team he is a non factor. No Patriots RB is trustable in the long term. Even while he's still in New England you never know if its gonna be a Rex week or a White week or what. I didn't know his contract was up after this season, but if I had to guess I'd say he'll probably stick around if they still want him around, and I don't see why they wouldn't.

If you're asking because you own him, I'd try to trade him away if possible. I'm assuming your trade deadline has passed for this season, though.
