Should I start Aaron Jones Sr. or Josh Allen in Week 10?
Updated Nov 10, 9:11 AM ET. Week 11 answers post Tuesday.
Start Josh Allen: 98 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Aaron Jones Sr.'s 32 percent of the snaps and 30 percent of the carries. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
Should I drop Aaron Jones Sr. for Josh Allen?
Yes, on the rest of the season. Josh Allen projects 186 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (23.2 a game over 8 games), Aaron Jones Sr. 102 (12.8 a game over 8 games).

The gap
- Board size306 draftable players
Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.
Where the draft room stands
Live drafts hold no current pick on Aaron Jones Sr., and the board ranks him 36th overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Josh Allen, and the board ranks him 37th overall on the rest of his evidence.
In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 2.
The market-based projections
No season market is posted for Aaron Jones Sr., so the only market valuing him on this page is the draft room.
The market-based projection for Josh Allen is 5.8 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 0 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
