Fantasy Football Player Notes

Achane continued his strong RB1 ways last year as the RB6 in fantasy points per game. In his 16 full games played, he averaged 17.3 touches and 92.6 total yards. His otherwordly per-touch efficiency didn't hold up last year, but that doesn't mean he was bad. Among 46 qualifying backs, he was 19th in explosive run rate and missed tackles forced per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). He was a stud in the passing game, sitting at ninth in yards per route run and second in target share and receiving yards per game. I have plenty of questions about the Dolphins for 2025, but Achane isn't one of them. He should continue to post RB1 numbers in 2025.

Jaylen Wright will battle with Alexander Mattison and Ollie Gordon to be De'Von Achane's backup. He has a leg up entering camp, but we'll have to see if he can secure the job. On a per-carry basis, he did offer some hope with a 5.9% explosive run rate and an 18% missed tackle rate (per Fantasy Points Data). Wright is a decent final-round pick/best ball dart throw.
