De'VonAchane

News: 13 hours agoAchane rushed 10 times for 32 yards and brought in three of four targets for 24 yards and two touchdowns in the Dolphins' 34-15 win over the Patriots on Sunday.

Spin: Achane surprisingly found running room at a premium against a Patriots team that had struggled against opposing ground attacks all season, but he made up for it with the second multi-TD receiving effort of his career. Achane found the end zone from nine and 11 yards out exactly six minutes apart in the second quarter, his fourth and fifth touchdowns over the last four games. Achane figures to be in for another busy workday when the Dolphins travel to Lambeau Field to face off with the Packers in a Thanksgiving Night showdown Thursday.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: What will Achane do as an encore to his impressive rookie season? He led the league in yards per carry (7.8), among those with a minimum of 100 attempts. The Dolphins were one of the league's most dynamic offenses last season, ranking third in total yards and points per game under head coach and playcaller Mike McDaniel. Expect more of the same in 2024. One red flag with Achane is his durability, as he missed six games last season. However, he remains lethal with the football in his hands, averaging 17.3 fantasy points per game despite only 12.0 touches per game. Those rates scream regression candidate, but that should be offset by a boost in volume in Year 2. Achane will split touches with Raheem Mostert, but he can be drafted as an excellent, high-end flex option with tremendous upside.
