Fantasy Football Running Backs

3 Running Backs to Avoid In Fantasy Football

2. De’Von Achane (RB7)

De’Von Achane is a fantastic running back and easily the most explosive and dangerous weapon remaining on the Miami Dolphins. While he should receive a large workload, this roster isn’t good enough to support his current ADP. The Miami Dolphins have arguably the league’s worst roster, led by an unproven quarterback in Malik Willis, a defensive-minded first-year head coach in Jeff Hafley, and no real receiving weapons to take focus off the ground game.

Achane is good, but he might not be good enough to overcome such a terrible environment, especially without Mike McDaniel running the offense. Say what you will about his ability as a head coach, but nobody can deny that McDaniel is one of the most creative offensive minds in football. Bobby Slowik comes from the Kyle Shanahan coaching tree, but he probably won’t be as good as McDaniel at scheming opportunities for this playmaking threat.
