  • Board size329 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 the market projection.

The market-based projections

Aaron Rodgers's market-based projection is 14.3 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 15 market sources. That is the 48th highest figure of the 210 players with a market-based projection.

Keon Coleman's market-based projection is 7.7 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 14 market sources. That is the 110th highest figure of the 210 players with a market-based projection.

He has been sacked or hit on 32 of 200 dropbacks and scrambled 3 times.

In Week 3 against CIN he completed 19 of 33 passes for 292 yards, threw 3 touchdowns and 1 interception and ran 1 time for 12 yards.

Through Week 5, Keon Coleman has been on the field for 64 percent of BUF snaps, drawn 14 percent of the targets and had 6 percent of the red zone chances.

He has taken 7 of the offence's 35 third down targets, had 1 of its 18 chances inside the five and seen 4 of its 24 two minute targets.

Their 2025 seasons

In 2025 Aaron Rodgers played 16 games and scored 234.1 PPR points, 14.6 a game, finishing QB18.

He threw for 3322 yards on 498 attempts with 24 touchdowns and 7 interceptions, and ran for 61 yards and 1 touchdown.

That came to 31.1 attempts a game at 6.7 yards an attempt.

He was on the field for 95 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

In 2025 Keon Coleman played 13 games and scored 102.4 PPR points, 7.9 a game, finishing WR60.

He caught 38 of 59 targets for 404 yards and 4 touchdowns, with 9 red zone targets.

That came to 4-5 targets a game, a 64 percent catch rate and 10.6 yards a catch.

He was on the field for 64 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Aaron Rodgers was available for 3 games more.

Side by side

In 2025 Aaron Rodgers scored 14.6 PPR points a game and Keon Coleman 7.9, 6.8 a game between them.

Aaron Rodgers finished QB18 and Keon Coleman WR60, which are two different ladders.

Aaron Rodgers is a quarterback and Keon Coleman a wide receiver, 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 Keon Coleman in Week 7, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

6.7 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
