How does everyone see Dion Lewis moving forward?

PPR

Similar to Vereen the past few years, or more reliable? I know we don't have a large sample size so it's really hard to say..but just looking to see what everyone predicts.

I know you should never completely lean on a New England back, being that they can completely disappear in one game and put up 25 the next. It just seems like Lewis is a much better fit in this offense than Vereen was the past few seasons.

I just sent Allen Robinson and Bishop Sankey for Dion Lewis, so I guess I'm going in.

Well I got him off Waivers, so I'm hoping he keeps it up..

Not sure if I would have given up A Robinson for him, but I don't know what the rest of your team looks like.

The positive thing is that even with Blount back last week, Lewis played like 76 of 82 snaps......I think the main thing is that Brady obviously feels comfortable with him, and has developed trust

Robinson was my WR4, and Sankey was my RB3.

Wanted to do it so I had a solid back up and flex player for BYE weeks

I won't post my team, because it'll take away from the discussion

He is a better player with the ball in his hands than Vereen, so the upside is high. Just wish I had him in PPR.

Now that everyone is starting him, he will fumble and get put in the doghouse behind Blount, Gray and Bolden.

I drafted him so I definitely like him. He's making me look smart so far but I have yet to play him. Looks like he is going into my lineup this week and I'm a little nervous. I have Tom Brady as well which for some reason makes me not like the play.

He already fumbled last week.

Great flex option all year with RB2 potential in PPR.

All in.

And still got pretty much all of the snaps anyways. He'd really have to frick up to lose the starting spot at this point imo

He's a flex option to me. Right or wrong, I'm still wary of playing any NE RB. Although I think he's a great stash.
