Who Should I Start? De'Von Achane or Keon Coleman

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane carried the ball three times for 22 yards in a 24-24 preseason tie with the Chicago Bears on Sunday. Achane got the start and played on the Dolphins' first drive of the game, rotating with Jaylen Wright along the way. The explosive third-year running back has the lead role in the Miami backfield locked down, so he is unlikely to see much more playing time in the preseason going forward. While the Miami offensive line remains a concern, Achane still sets up as a solid RB1 in fantasy drafts later this summer thanks to his explosiveness and pass-catching skills. The Dolphins will be back on the field on Saturday to take on the Detroit Lions in their second preseason game.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has been impressed with second-year wideout Keon Coleman early in training camp. "He's taking that next step for sure. I mean today, dude put on a show," Shakir said. Coleman got off to an inconsistent start in minicamp, but he appears to have put that behind him early in camp. The Bills are hoping that the 22-year-old will take the next step in 2025 after he disappointed with 29 receptions for 556 yards and four touchdowns in 13 regular-season games (12 starts). The good thing is that he averaged 19.2 yards per catch, and Amari Cooper is no longer on the team. If Joshua Palmer is used as more of the team's deep threat, Coleman could be freed up for more underneath routes and more yards-after-the catch potential. It's a good start in camp for a receiver that could be an excellent value pick in upcoming fantasy drafts.
