Should You Start or Sit De’Von Achane in Week 13?
That’s five straight games with at least 6.5 PPR points as a pass catcher for De’Von Achane as this offense appears motivated to cater to what their explosive RB1 does well.
His two touchdown receptions last week against the Patriots were artistic. Remember the Frogger episode of Seinfeld where George is systematically navigating New York traffic with the machine? That’s what these Achane screens and quick hitters remind me of, as the Dolphins excel at timing it and setting up their blockers.
Of course, that episode ends with George ultimately losing the game, and that’s where this comparison falls flat — I’m not sure defenses are fast enough to stop these plays when it is run to perfection. Achane has finished four of his past five games as a top-10 fantasy running back; with the Packers’ defense ranking 27th in EPA against the run, I don’t think this is a roadblock in the slightest.
I think this is a competitive game, but even if it were to slant in either direction, Achane is essentially script-proof. That is the driving force behind him being my top-ranked running back for Week 13.
