From the article

he was the most dependent of the five on his role in the passing game to hit that fantasy points-per-contest mark. Over half of his fantasy production during the past two years has come in the passing game. Furthermore, Achane's fantasy production tanked when Tua Tagovailoa was sidelined. I won't draft him as a mid-range RB1 and would like to avoid picking Achane altogether with Malik Willis under center.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Achane's passing-game dependency and poor performance with Malik Willis make him a bust.

Achane averaged 20.2 PPR points per game last year but is a bust candidate at ADP 10.8 (RB6) because over half his fantasy production came from the passing game, making him dependent on role; his production tanked when Tua Tagovailoa was sidelined, and with Malik Willis under center, Fanelli would avoid drafting him as a mid-range RB1.
