Dion Lewis
New England Patriots running back Dion Lewis fumbles the ball against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1 of 2015."

Dion Lewis (Running Back) (New England Patriots): Lewis once again showed up the current backs on the Patriots roster adding 40 yards and 6 catches for 98 yards to his seasonal total. He also managed to punch in a touchdown as well as being extremely productive on only 7 carries. Lewis looks like the main guy in the Patriot's offense however this backfield can be disturbingly unpredictable.

Heath Miller (Tight End) (Pittsburgh Steelers): Miller has had 2 solid weeks and continues to be a safety valve for Ben Roethlisberger.  He finished the game catching both of his targets, gaining 15 yards and most importantly a touchdown. Miller is worth an add in all leagues.

Eric Ebron (Tight End) (Detroit Lions): Ebron has become one of Matt Stafford's best targets early in this 2015 season. Ebron managed to haul in 5/10 catches for 43 yards and a touchdown after a similar week 1 performance. Ebron could be in for some big numbers this season that's to his size and playmaking ability in the red zone.  

Matt Jones (Running Back) (Washington Redskins): Matt Jones has slowly been stealing the starting job from Alfred Morris. Now in after his best game as a pro he might have it. Jones rushed for 123 yards in week 2 on 19 carries. He ended the day with 2 touchdowns and 3 catches for 23 yards.

Travis Benjamin (Wide Receiver) (Cleveland Browns): Benjamin is one of those big risk big reward prospects in fantasy football, but he has not had a bad game in all of 2015. In fact for the past two weeks he has gone off with the help of Johnny Manziel. It is also hard to deny Benjamin's numbers in week 2 finishing the game with 115 yards, 2 touchdowns on 3 receptions. Benjamin is a must add in deeper leagues and if you are desperate for a wide receiver, Benjamin deserves a shot.
