Who Should I Start? Cam Akers or Audric Estime

The Seattle Seahawks are signing free-agent running back Cam Akers to their active 53-man roster on Wednesday, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Akers, 26, spent time with the Minnesota Vikings this season and will now join the 8-3 Seahawks for RB depth. The Seahawks are facing the Vikings in Week 13 this Sunday. Akers appeared in only three games for Minnesota this year, carrying the ball five times for 19 yards while also completing a 32-yard pass on a trick play. The six-year NFL veteran will give Seattle some more backfield depth, with George Holani (hamstring) a candidate to land on Injured Reserve. Akers probably won't have any fantasy value as long as both Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet stay healthy.

New Orleans Saints running back Audric Estime figures to have a larger role in the offense for the upcoming Week 13 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The Saints are going to be without lead back Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) for at least one game. That means, Devin Neal will take over as the lead back. However, Estime, Evan Hull, and Taysom Hill could see a role as well. Estime was signed to the active roster a few weeks ago, but has been mainly a depth option. The 22-year-old is still young enough to re-establish his value with his new team. Estime won't be worth starting this weekend, but could be someone worth stashing in dynasty formats.
