Who Should I Start? James Conner or Devon Achane

Friday, November 22, 12:12 PM

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner has boom potential in their Week 12 road matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The Cardinals are coming off a bye week, which afforded Conner much-needed rest after his heavy workload through the first ten games of the season. Conner is having one of his best seasons as a pro and is on pace for 1,185 yards and eight touchdowns. He'll look to maintain that pace against a familiar opponent in the Seahawks, against whom he has racked up over 300 total yards and four touchdowns in four games as a Cardinal. This should be a favorable matchup for the Cardinals' rushing attack, and Conner should be started in all leagues.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane is coming off another solid performance in their 34-19 win in Week 11 over the Las Vegas Raiders. He carried the ball 17 times for 73 yards and a touchdown. He also added four receptions for 32 yards. Achane has been on an absolute tear since Tua Tagovailoa's (concussion) return in Week 8. He's now ranked as the overall fantasy RB8 and scored 20+ PPR points in three of his last four games. This week, he gets a matchup against a New England Patriots defense that ranks 23rd in PPR points allowed to running backs per game. Miami must win this game, and Achane has been the hot handout of the backfield. Expect his usual workhorse role; start him as a safe floor RB1 with a very high upside. He checks into Week 12 as RotoBallers RB3 in the weekly rankings.
