Cam Skattebo vs De'Von Achane: Who Should You Start?
Deciding between Cam Skattebo and De'Von Achane is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The New York Giants running back put up 14.5 PPG in 2025 over 8 games; De'Von Achane of the Miami Dolphins averaged 18.1 in 16. A 3.6-point margin that could shift on any given week.
The per-game difference of 3.6 points favors De'Von Achane, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one running back to the other.
De'Von Achane is the receiving back in this matchup, turning 67 targets into 488 yards, while Cam Skattebo profiles as a more traditional rusher with 410 rushing yards and 5 touchdowns. In PPR and half-PPR formats De'Von Achane carries the higher weekly floor. In standard leagues the gap tightens considerably.
Cam Skattebo has his bye in Week 11, and De'Von Achane rests in Week 6. 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.
