Jordan Raanan: Consider me bullish on Dion Lewis for fantasy

Jordan Raanan of ESPN expects Giants RB Dion Lewis to benefit the most Sunday against the 49ers.

"My expectation Sunday for Giants backfield is Wayne Gallman starts (run downs), Dion Lewis gets the most snaps (pass downs + more) while Devonta Freeman is sprinkled in with only 5 days to learn the playbook and get into playing shape," tweeted Raanan. "Consider me bullish on Lewis for fantasy."

Fantasy Impact: 

Raanan's opinion helps, but there is no guarantee that the snaps play out like this. Gallman was a healthy scratch last week, leaving Lewis with the entirety of the RB duties. Starting any of this trio has downside, but Lewis should see the most work against a battered 49ers defense.
