De'Von Achane fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 1 (2024). Should you start or sit De'Von Achane for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in All Formats
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2
ANALYSIS: Fantasy managers are either in on Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane this year or they are out on him. If you are in on Achane and you selected him in the second or third round of your fantasy drafts, you are starting him against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1.
Achane averaged 7.77 yards per carry in his rookie season while rushing for 800 yards and totaling 197 receiving yards. His explosiveness in Miami's offense gives him a high ceiling every week. That high ceiling is a reason why fantasy managers should be starting him in Week 1.

While we don't exactly know how the Dolphins will utilize their running backs (Achane, Raheem Mostert, Jaylen Wright) in the season opener, the second-year back figures to see plenty of opportunities.
If you took Achane early in drafts, you should slot him into one of your top two running back slots in Week 1.
