Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or De'Von Achane

Saturday, November 8, 9:41 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has gotten back on track over the last few games, and comes into Week 10 as the overall RB15 in half-PPR leagues. Across those last three games, Henry is averaging 104.0 yards and 0.7 touchdowns on 21.3 carries per game. The Minnesota Vikings, however, have been quite stout against the run for most of the season. They're ranked the 11th toughest defense against opposing backfields and limited the dynamic Detroit Lions' run game to just a total of 16 fantasy points last week. With that being said, Henry is projected as a low-end RB1 because Lamar Jackson's gravity can still account for a lot of openings on the ground.

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.
