Despite an offseason roster purge, the Dolphins have labeled De’Von Achane an untouchable “building block” as he leverages a contract standoff after a 2025 campaign defined by elite efficiency, including a league-leading 5.7 True Yards Per Carry (Rank #1) and a 19.8% Target Share (Rank #2).

Now the undisputed centerpiece in Bobby Slowik’s system, Achane’s path to a repeat Top-5 fantasy finish is paved by his outlier athleticism and efficiency that remains immune to negative game scripts. The presence Malik Willis adds downward pressure on Achane’s target volume and red zone usage, but in dynasty, he remains a HOLD offering league-winning upside as a dynamic 24-year-old efficiency machine whose value will be unaffected by a contract extension.
