Eric Ebron (TE, DET) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues as Backup, 14-Team Leagues as Starter

Ownership: 32% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Eric Ebron has gotten off to a fast start in his sophomore year, reeling in a touchdown in each of the first two games-- he had one score in all of 2014. His 10 targets and five receptions in Week 2 were both career highs, giving the impression that his role in the Lions' offense has significantly increased. Matthew Stafford loves to spread the ball around, so look for Ebron's workload to continue to grow, especially in the red zone. A big, athletic tight end like Ebron in a pass-happy offense is likely to put up big numbers, so don't let him sit on the waiver wire. Ebron remains a high-end TE2 in most formats, but he has the potential to jump into the top 10 for tight ends at some point this season.
