Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Devon Achane

Saturday, November 23, 8:18 AM

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert has been nonexistent since his costly fumble back in Week 9 against the Buffalo Bills. So much so that he didn't even receive a single carry last week vs. the Las Vegas Raiders in their 34-19 win; that can all change this week. Mostert will go up against a New England Patriots run defense that has given up the third-most rushing yards to running backs this season. It should also be noted that in his last three meetings, the 32-year-old speedster averaged 82.3 rushing yards per game and had three touchdowns. With the recent lack of playing time, Mostert is a touchdown-dependent flex at best for Week 12 and is RotoBaller's RB40 for Week 12.

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.
