Tight End Rank: #18 Overall: #121
Lewis had a career season, setting career highs in receptions, yards and touchdowns. He was the top threat in the Jags' passing game. Lewis had just seven touchdowns heading into the season but managed to score 10. He was a big-time red-zone threat. Lewis didn't have many big yardage games, but he was consistent, getting at least two receptions in every game last season. He also had three two-touchdown games. Lewis had 700 yards after having a previous career high of 518. His yardage numbers have increased every season in the league. At 27 years old, Lewis is in the prime of his career. Lewis is a big target with speed and athleticism. He is an ideal fit for the red zone because of his size and leaping ability. He should continue to start for the Jags the next several seasons.

Lewis emerged into a legit No. 1 fantasy tight end last season. It wouldn't surprise to see his numbers dip some, but expect them to remain low-end No. 1 tight end numbers. He can get 650 yards and near double-digit scores. Lewis is a guy that can help fantasy teams but be had later in your draft. |
