It is Thursday for this one. That means it's mailbag time. So let's just dive right in this week.

0:28.5

At D-86 harp, do you think Devon A-chan will be an RB1 for the rest of the season, considering the

0:34.9

Dolphins tough matchups? So this was one that I didn't totally understand because I know that there's been

0:41.3

talked that the Dolphins have a tough fantasy playoff schedule, but that's more for the

0:45.6

passing game because they have to play the Jets, the Cowboys, the Ravens.

0:49.4

Those are weeks 15 to week 17.

0:51.8

But coming off the buy here, they get the Raiders who give up the eighth most fantasy points to running backs. Then they get the Jets who, yes, they make life hard on quarterbacks and on receivers, but you can run on the Jets. They allow the 13th most fantasy points to running backs. Then it's the commanders who aren't really stopping anybody these days. And even though they're a middle of the pack matchup on paper for fantasy backs, that defense, they've been hit hard by good

1:15.3

ball carriers. You look at this. I mean, Kenneth Walker, he put up 127 scrimmage yards on them

1:20.3

last week. Ramandre Stevenson, 129 yards on them the week before. So I'm not really scared

1:26.0

of that matchup. Same goes for the Titans who the Dolphins play a week later.

1:29.9

Tennessee on paper.

1:31.3

They started the year really strong against the runs.

1:33.6

So their numbers look solid overall.

1:35.6

But lately, they got hit for 98 yards by Rashad White.

1:39.0

The week before, it was 113 yards to Jalen Warren and another 76 to Najee Harris in that same game. So Tennessee, not as scary as they used to be against the run. And that's the next month here for Miami. Then you get into the fantasy playoffs where they get the Jets again. And we already went over the Jets, right? 13th, easiest matchup for RBs. So yes, Dallas, Baltimore, week 16, week 17, those are very important weeks

2:02.8

if you're still alive. But Achan in this system with that big playability, I do expect that he

2:08.7

is going to be in the low end RB1 conversation the rest of the way as long as he stays healthy.

2:13.2

And I will still be playing him if I am active in those games in week 16 and 17, I will have him in my lineup even in those slightly tougher matchups.

2:22.5

At F ball underscore money, do we trust Saquan Barkley rest of season? I don't. And it's really unfortunate because, you know, talent-wise, he has what it takes to be a difference maker for fantasy, and he's finally healthy here. But everything around him, it's all falling apart. He doesn't have a quarterback. Tommy DeVito, Matt Barkley, I don't think those guys are going to keep this offense moving. I'm not convinced that Tyrod Taylor is going to come back off IR in a few weeks. I just don't think there's any reason for him to do that at this point. Plus, the injuries on the offensive line, that continues to be a problem.

2:55.9

The Giants tackles, Evan Neal, Andrew Thomas, they're banged up. We don't know if they're going to
