MIA RB De'Von Achane - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Los Angeles Rams

Whatever your preseason expectations were for De'Von Achane it feels safe to say he's exceeding them. Achane is the RB1, WR2, and part-time goal-line back this year for the Dolphins and he has one of the best roles in football.

Achane is essentially matchup-proof right now. That said, the Rams are 15th aFPA against running backs so it isn't even a tough matchup. He's a no-brainer, must-start for the foreseeable future.

MIA RB De'Von Achane - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Buffalo Bills

De'Von Achane was one of the biggest beneficiaries of Tua Tagovailoa's return to the field. He didn't disappoint as he nearly put up 100 yards on the ground and also added 50 yards and a touchdown through the air. Achane is an elite option when the quarterback situation isn't the worst in the league.

The way you beat the Bills is on the ground, so expect heavy doses of Achane and Raheem Mostert this weekend. Buffalo is 25th aFPA against running backs this year, which puts Achane firmly in the RB1 conversation with the matchup and his role.

MIA RB De'Von Achane - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs Arizona Cardinals

Everything that's happened without Tua Tagovailoa just can't be useful moving forward for fantasy purposes. That said, De'Von Achane has to be so excited for the return of Tagovailoa so defenses can actually give him some room to run.

Arizona is 12th aFPA against running backs, but just a few weeks ago Brian Robinson Jr. topped 100 yards and a touchdown so the ceiling can be there for Achane. He's a high-end RB2 this week, but he could easily over-perform projections here.

MIA RB De'Von Achane - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Indianapolis Colts

The Miami Dolphins offense has completely fallen apart and it certainly didn't help that De'Von Achane left the game before the bye against the Patriots with a concussion, but Achane will be back for this matchup against the Colts.

The matchup against the Colts is solid as they are 24th aFPA against running backs. While Achane doesn't have the ceiling he had earlier in the season, he still can break a big play. He's a middle-of-the-pack RB2 this week, but the matchup is solid and they should go more run-heavy against this beatable Colts rush defense.

MIA RB De'Von Achane - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at New England Patriots

It turns out not even Tyler Huntley is good enough to keep this Dolphins offense afloat and that sank De'Von Achane's fantasy week. To make things more complicated, Raheem Mostert is expected back this week.

New England is 7th aFPA against running backs so far this season, so it's not exactly an easy matchup, and given how things have gone without Tua Tagovailoa, the addition of Mostert back to the rotation is far from ideal. Achane is still an RB2 this week, but the ceiling is lowered with Mostert back and a tough matchup.

MIA RB De'Von Achane - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Tennessee Titans

As the main attraction on the Dolphins offense this season, De'Von Achane has been the one constant through the quarterback turmoil. It wasn't a great day against the Seahawks, but he still led the Dolphins in carries and was tied for the team lead in targets.

Against the Titans, who are 25th aFPA against running backs, Achane should have more room to run than against the Seahawks. Achane is back in the RB1 mix this week, especially if Snoop Huntley is the starting quarterback. He's still not back to his elite ceiling when Tua Tagovailoa was healthy, but he can be started confidently this week. We'll see if Raheem Mostert returns this week after getting two limited practices in.

MIA RB De'Von Achane - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Seattle Seahawks

With Raheem Mostert doubtful this week, De'Von Achane should have the majority of the work again. Achane had 22 carries and 7 receptions against Buffalo and carried the Miami offense.

Even with Skylar Thompson under center, Achane is still an RB1 this week. He's going to be the focal point of the offense and without Mostert has the goal line work and the passing-down work. He's a must-start even with Thompson starting at quarterback.
