Who Should I Start? De'Von Achane or Cam Skattebo

Friday, November 7, 7:47 PM

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane continues to be an elite option in a struggling offense, coming into his Week 10 matchup with the Bills. Achane could get even more work than normal with Ollie Gordon II (ankle) questionable and some extra rest since the Dolphins last played on Thursday Night Football over a week ago. Achane rushed 14 times for 67 yards in the Dolphins' Week 9 loss to the Ravens, adding six receptions for 39 yards. He had 12 carries for 62 yards and seven catches for 29 yards the first time he faced Buffalo this season, and he should be very busy once again on Sunday at home. He has seven touchdowns in nine games this season, and his consistent PPR involvement keeps both his floor and ceiling very high. He has logged double-digit carries every week since Week 1, while racking up 56 targets in those seven games. This week, he is the No. 4 RB in RotoBaller's rankings, making him an elite start in all formats.

The injury to New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) has a four- to six-month recovery timeline, which would set up Skattebo to be ready for offseason OTAs and minicamp, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Skattebo had one of the more gruesome injuries that you will see, and ultimately suffered a dislocated ankle, fractured fibula, and a deltoid ligament rupture. The 23-year-old had a successful surgery to close the wound and put him on track to make a full recovery. The fourth-rounder out of Arizona State was having a great rookie campaign, totaling 410 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 101 carries to go with 24 receptions for 207 yards and two scores on 32 targets through eight games. Second-year back Tyrone Tracy Jr. will be expected to take over as the lead back in New York, with veteran Devin Singletary mixing in.
