Aaron Rodgers or Chris Rodriguez Jr.: who to draft first
Both players' season price from the sportsbooks, their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, with the draft market's own figures wherever it still has them.
Updated Sep 19, 2026 at 10:01 AM ET
The sportsbooks price Aaron Rodgers 7.1 points a game ahead of Chris Rodriguez Jr. this season, and that is the order this page leads on. Neither is in the consensus draft sample any more, so there is no current draft order to give between them: the books' price is the live market on these two.

Side by side
Aaron Rodgers is a quarterback and Chris Rodriguez Jr. a running back, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.
Byes and availability
Aaron Rodgers is off in Week 9 and Chris Rodriguez Jr. in Week 7, so either can cover the other's bye.
What would change the answer
7.1 points a game is the entire case. The books restate it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.
The draft market is the half that is missing: when the consensus sample holds these two again it can order them differently from the price, and this page will follow the sample rather than the books when it does.
