Cam Akers vs Devin Singletary: The Full Breakdown

The gap between Cam Akers and Devin Singletary is smaller than most fantasy managers think. Separated by just 0.1 PPG in 2025, this is one of those running back decisions that comes down to context, not name recognition. Cam Akers averaged 6.0 PPG with the Minnesota Vikings across 13 games, and Devin Singletary posted 5.9 with the New York Giants in 17.

When two running backs are separated by less than two points per game, the decision shifts to weekly context. Who has the softer defense? Who is trending up over the last month? Which team is projected for more total points? Those are the tiebreakers that actually matter.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Cam Akers ran for 318 yards and 2 touchdowns; Devin Singletary posted 437 and 5. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

Cam Akers has his bye in Week 6, and Devin Singletary rests in Week 8. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at running back for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Cam Akers (age 27) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open. Devin Singletary (age 28, 6 years) is past the typical RB peak. Redraft value exceeds dynasty value.
