Thoughts on Achane for the year?(Nico trade)
Posted on 9/23/23 at 5:32 pm

Have the ability to trade Nico for achane. (14 team)
I only have to play 1 rb and have Monty, Kenneth Walker, Gainwell, Kendra, Akers for that spot (or two if I want to throw one in 2 flex spots)
Playing 4 WRs with Jefferson, AJ, Puka, Terry/Nico
Andrew’s is my TE and Herbert qb.
Do we think Achane could be something special this year as the year progresses or are Mostert, Wilson, Ahmed going to be too much of a crowd to keep him from being more than a part time player at his size.
I’m leaning that he will be more of a gadget player that will occasionally pop a big end around or screen but think that will be highly inconsistent while Nico may actually be breaking out into a garbage time juggernaut and has significant WR2 with upside potential.

No way I'd give up a sure thing in Nico for a maybe, might be a thing RB. You can do MUCH better.

Thanks. How I feel. Achane very intriguing to me in that offense but I really feel good about Nico.

Why would you consider this trade?

I don’t think he’s even worth rostering in shallow leagues

Because I live down here and they’re VERY high on achane, mostert probably has about 2 weeks left before he has his annual injury swoon, and I have a ton of WRs for a 14 team league

You have a to of backs for a single back roster
Do you really need another nightmare to forecast into that slot?

It just depends if/when Mostert gets hurt. From my understanding Achane may have a role this week.

Even so, at that point there’s probably 2 better plays every week unless you are wildly confident in the matchup and game script for Miami and even then it’s a shot in the dark. Why trade a starting player for that?

Looks like a Mike McDaniel’s offense found another productive RB. I don’t know why so much pessimism on an Achane flyer.
Still would have kept Nico > Achane.

Another Achane TD.
Called back for a weak holding call but looks great.
ETA: and another. This time confirmed.

don’t think it was pessimism on taking a flyer
it was pessimism on trading a top10 current wr for him

Nico averaging 10 targets and 113 yards over first 2 weeks
Achane has 1 rush and 1.9 season points.
Without knowing this week, wtf would you do 10 times out of 10 again?

he's still available in my league. I don't need him but I'm #1 in the waiver order and I'm picking him up anyway
