Should I start Kyle Williams or Aaron Rodgers in Week 7?

Updated Oct 20, 6:16 AM ET.

Start Aaron Rodgers: 99 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Kyle Williams's 32 percent of the snaps and 8 percent of the targets. 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.

The gap

  • Board size297 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 Kyle Williams, and the board ranks him 61st overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Aaron Rodgers, and the board ranks him 62nd overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

Kyle Williams's market-based projection is 4.2 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 51st highest figure of the 160 players with a market-based projection.

The market-based projection for Aaron Rodgers is 16.3 PPR points a game off 4 markets across 8 market sources. That is 90 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Aaron Rodgers's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

Through Week 6, Kyle Williams has been on the field for 27 percent of NE snaps, drawn 6 percent of the targets and had 0 percent of the red zone chances.

He has taken 5 of the offence's 51 third down targets, had 0 of its 10 chances inside the five and seen 1 of its 25 two minute targets.

Kyle Williams was available for 1 game more.

Side by side

In 2025 Aaron Rodgers scored 14.6 PPR points a game and Kyle Williams 2.9, 11.7 a game between them.

Kyle Williams finished WR112 and Aaron Rodgers QB18, which are two different ladders.

Kyle Williams is a wide receiver and Aaron Rodgers a quarterback, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Kyle Williams is off in Week 11 and Aaron Rodgers in Week 9, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

Aaron Rodgers has only a partial projection, so the market half of this page is whole for only one of them.
