BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4
ANALYSIS: Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert doesn't seem to be in danger of losing his backup job to rookie Jaylen Wright, but he lost a fumble for the second time in three games, which could lead team head coach Mike McDaniel to reduce his workload.

The gaffe was the result of a careless effort by the 32-year old. He seemed to be unconcerned with the defender to his right, and didn't make an effort to protect the ball as he was making his way upfield. This gave the opposing Buffalo Bills defender an easy chance to punch the ball out.
Fellow RB De'Von Achane is the clear lead back, and he's played more snaps, had more carries, and been much more involved in the receiving game. Miami prefers to take a committee approach to rushes, but 2023's RB5 in PPR does not have enough of a workload to be a good start in fantasy.
And despite a reduced role, his efficiency has plummeted -- he averages just under 3.9 yards per carry this season, down from over 4.8 YPC in 2023. The presence of Wright hasn't helped either. He's a bench stash handcuff for Achane and isn't a great start against a surging Los Angeles Rams defense in Week 10.
