Start Greg Dulcich: 69 percent of the snaps and 21 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Adonai Mitchell's 64 percent of the snaps and 25 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 Adonai Mitchell for Greg Dulcich?

Yes, on the rest of the season. Greg Dulcich projects 57 market-implied PPR points from Week 9 through Week 17 (6.3 a game over 9 games), Adonai Mitchell 27 (3.4 a game over 8 games).

The market-based projections
