De’Von Achane's prospects are uncertain due to the Miami Dolphins' questionable passing attack and reliance on untested quarterbacks. Saquon Barkley, at 30 years old and coming off a heavy workload, raises concerns about durability. Similarly, while Nico Collins is Houston's leading wideout, his potential may be limited as newer draft picks emerge.
