Who Should I Start? Tyler Allgeier or De'Von Achane

Tuesday, November 25, 11:36 AM

Across 11 games this season, Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier has recorded 89 catches for 324 yards and seven touchdowns. As long as star Falcons back Bijan Robinson remains healthy, Allgeier's production upside is limited. However, the Falcons have consistently demonstrated a willingness to use Allgeier in goal-to-go situations, which gives him touchdown-scoring potential every week. Additionally, should Robinson get injured, Allgeier holds fantasy league-winning potential. As the fantasy playoffs draw closer in most leagues, Allgeier is worth rostering for his handcuff upside alone. In the right matchups, such as Atlanta's Week 13 game against the New York Jets, Allgeier has standalone value as a flex option. He should be rostered in all leagues with 12 or more teams heading into Week 13.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane is putting together a phenomenal 2025 season, handling 164 carries for 900 yards and five touchdowns to go with 54 receptions (71 targets) for 370 yards and four touchdowns as a receiver. Achane is the RB4 in PPR points per game this season at 21.4, and is currently on a monster four-game run. The star running back has 428 rushing yards with 22 receptions in the past four games, a feat that only Jahmyr Gibbs has matched in any four-game stretch this season. Since 2016, the only running backs to hit those dual-threat marks or better include Breece Hall, Christian McCaffrey, Ezekiel Elliott, Todd Gurley, and Le'Veon Bell. Achane's ability to break off explosive runs, combined with his elite pass-catching ability, has made him a fantasy cheat code since entering the league in 2023. He will remain an elite RB1 in Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints.
