Brenton Strange vs De'Von Achane: Who Should You Start?

Comparing Brenton Strange (TE, Jacksonville Jaguars) against De'Von Achane (RB, Miami Dolphins) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. Brenton Strange averaged 7.9 PPG in 2025 over 12 games, while De'Von Achane posted 18.1 PPG across 16 games.

Cross-position FLEX decisions cannot be made on PPG alone. Positional scarcity, matchup quality, floor versus ceiling, and league scoring format all shift the answer. A 14 PPG tight end in a thin TE week is often worth more than a 16 PPG receiver in a deep WR week, because the opportunity cost on the waiver wire is wildly different.

DraftCall's AI engine weighs all of these signals and returns a verdict with clear reasoning, so you are not cross-referencing four different rankings tabs on a Sunday morning.

Brenton Strange has his bye in Week 12, De'Von Achane in Week 6. Plan your FLEX rotation around those weeks, especially if either player is anchoring your roster.

The Bottom Line

The 2025 numbers favor De'Von Achane at 18.1 PPG, 10.2 points per game above Brenton Strange's 7.9. But season stats only tell part of the story. DraftCall's AI factors in weekly matchup, recent form, and injury status to give you a verdict that updates with the latest data.
