Yes.
I have Achane in a rebuild (team 3) and I cannot get anything for Achane and its a 1QB league. It's wild how polarizing Achane is
Is it though? I think of him as the Tank Dell of running backs. Very small, which makes people question his durability, but absolutely lightning when he's on the field.

I would have drafted him at 1.09 or 1.10 last year but he went 1.05. I will not trade for him but would roster him if he was a throw-in. :snooty:

i personally do not trust him, which is why I am trying to trade him. I drafted him last year BPA at 1.08 and let him cook on my TS while no one was buying last year either.

Gotcha.

I wonder how many 10th BMI running backs have had fantasy success for any type of sustained clip? CJ2K is his spirti animal and we saw his ups and downs as basically the fastest back ever. :crazy:

I think 1.07 is a good return. I have him on both my teams and would consider that fair, not sure I’d make that move though. He’s in the perfect scheme and will not be asked to carry it 20 times a game. He’s an rb, they almost all get hurt eventually. Sure he’s smaller but his injury last year wasn’t because he’s small. You can be big and strong like Dobbins, Chubb, Javonte, etc and still get hurt.

I don't think he's that polarizing. I think it's just that people with him rostered think that his high scoring is the most important thing and those that don't have him believe that his lack of ability to stay in the field is the most important thing.

I don't think he's really done anything to improve on his value from last year significantly.

He is a tad more valuable than a throw-in......

Notable RB's under 28bmi
CJ2K
CJ Spiller
Darren McFadden
Kenyan Drake
Jamaal Charles

Back in the day (no concrete weights but enough evidence to suggest they were very low bmi)
Tony Dorsett
Warrick Dunn

Slightly over 28
28.1 - Demarco Murray
28.1 - CMC, Reggie Bush

Basically it's pretty rare, but not impossible
