Here is our fantasy football start/sit article, including all the players we’re calling sleepers and duds this week. Below, let’s take a closer look at a few players to consider this week.

Devin Singletary (RB – NYG)

Devin Singletary had a rough outing this past week with only 24 yards on 14 carries. He may have an even tougher time this week, getting as many opportunities against a high-powered Seattle offense as possible, which could lead to the Giants’ game script abandoning the run game. I don’t have a lot of confidence in Singletary moving forward, with Nabers and Robinson being the focal points of this offense.”

De’Von Achane (RB – MIA)

“You might want to avoid De’Von Achane this week. Listen, if you have to play him, then play him, but since Tua went down, Miami has had maybe the worst offense in football. Last week, Achane had 5.9 fantasy points vs TEN, who has given up 18 fantasy ppg vs the RB position. As long as the Dolphins are inefficient offensively, Achane will disappoint. Could be a surprising bust for Week 5.”
Morgan Colby (The Fantasy Champions)

De’Von Achane, at 24, might underperform this week. Yes, he has the talent to be the top fantasy scorer of any week; however, the lack of quarterback play hurts his upside. The Patriots’ defense has an experienced bunch that understands Miami’s running game is their best weapon right now. They will do their part to shut down Achane. Plus, over the past two weeks, Achane has scored fewer than 10 fantasy points consecutively. If you have him, you are probably starting him, but be prepared to be disappointed again.”

Zack Moss (RB – CIN)

Zack Moss is a player sitting just inside the top 40 that is likely to disappoint fantasy managers this week. With Chase Brown getting more of the workload in a high-run power offense in Week 4, I’d expect Moss to see less work again in Week 5. The Baltimore Ravens have not allowed opposing RBs to score a lot this year, and the Bengals could be passing the ball more with both Chase and Higgins back in the lineup.”
