Should I start Aaron Rodgers or Tee Higgins in Week 10?
Updated Nov 10, 10:11 AM ET. Week 11 answers post Tuesday.
Start Aaron Rodgers: 99 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Tee Higgins's 82 percent of the snaps and 23 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.
Should I drop Tee Higgins for Aaron Rodgers?
Not on these numbers alone. Tee Higgins projects 110 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (13.7 a game over 8 games) and Aaron Rodgers 115 (14.4 a game over 8 games), too close to separate, so the roster spot decides it.

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 Rodgers, and the board ranks him 9th overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Tee Higgins, and the board ranks him 10th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market-based projection for Aaron Rodgers is 16.7 PPR points a game off 4 markets across 5 market sources. That is 80 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Tee Higgins's market-based projection is 17.0 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 3 market sources. That is the 7th highest figure of the 207 players with a market-based projection.
Aaron Rodgers's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

Side by side
In 2025 Aaron Rodgers scored 14.6 PPR points a game and Tee Higgins 14.1, 0.5 a game between them.
Aaron Rodgers finished QB18 and Tee Higgins WR15, which are two different ladders.
Aaron Rodgers is a quarterback and Tee Higgins 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 Tee Higgins in Week 6, 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.
