FantasyPros Articles on De'Von Achane
From the article
Achane was one of five running backs to average over 20 PPR fantasy points per game last year (20.2). However, the former Texas A&M star was the most dependent of the five on his role in the passing game...over half of his fantasy production during the past two years has come in the passing game. That should concern fantasy players after the Dolphins made a massive change at quarterback in free agency. Miami released Tua Tagovailoa and replaced him with Malik Willis. Achane's fantasy production couldn't be more drastic with and without Tagovailoa under center. The superstar running back averaged 20.3 fantasy points per game when Tagovailoa has started. By comparison, he averaged only 10.5 without Tagovailoa.
STACKED’s take
Achane's 20.2 PPR average heavily reliant on passing game; Malik Willis change cuts production in half.
Achane's fantasy production is heavily dependent on his passing-game role and quarterback situation. He averaged 20.2 PPR fantasy points per game last year, making him one of five running backs to exceed 20 PPR points per game, but he was the most dependent on passing-game volume to reach that average. Over half his fantasy production in the past two years came from the passing game. The Dolphins' quarterback change from Tua Tagovailoa to Malik Willis is a major concern: Achane averaged 20.3 fantasy points per game with Tagovailoa starting but only 10.5 without him. While Achane will see a massive workload due to Miami's lack of proven pass catchers, the Dolphins' offense could be the worst in the league, creating significant downside risk.
