Who Should I Start? De'Von Achane or Isaac Guerendo

Sunday, November 9, 4:51 PM

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane had 22 carries for 174 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns during Sunday's Week 10 win over the Buffalo Bills. He also caught all six of his targets for an additional 51 receiving yards. The 24-year-old turned in his best fantasy outing since his rookie season, cementing his position as the overall RB3 in fantasy football so far this year. Achane took advantage of a positive game script and a favorable matchup on Sunday, but he has previously shown that he is capable of producing regardless of opponent. Managers should continue to start him as a high-end RB1 in Week 11 against the Washington Commanders.

San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo was thrust into action in his rookie season in the NFL in 2024 because Christian McCaffrey missed most of the year due to injuries. Guerendo finished with 84 rushing attempts for 420 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games (three starts) and also chipped in 15 catches on 16 targets as a pass-catcher for 152 yards. Fantasy managers probably viewed him as a pretty valuable handcuff for the injury-prone CMC going into 2025 drafts, but the Niners' acquisition of Brian Robinson Jr. before the season pretty much killed whatever fantasy appeal he had. Through the first seven weeks of his sophomore campaign, the 25-year-old former fourth-rounder has yet to play an offensive snap with CMC and B-Rob both staying healthy. Instead, Guerendo has been limited to a special teams role, returning five kickoffs for a combined 100 yards.
