- : Adonai Mitchell: Doubtful to Questionable (Finger, Surgery) (Sleeper injury feed)
Start Adonai Mitchell: 76 percent of the snaps and 25 percent of the targets over their last 2 games, against Ja'Kobi Lane's 46 percent of the snaps and 15 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 size315 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 Adonai Mitchell, and the board ranks him 193rd overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Ja'Kobi Lane, and the board ranks him 194th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market-based projection for Adonai Mitchell is 1.6 PPR points a game off 1 market across 10 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
The market-based projection for Ja'Kobi Lane is 1.5 PPR points a game off 1 market across 11 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Adonai Mitchell's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

That came to 4.6 targets a game, a 45 percent catch rate and 13.7 yards a catch.
