Should I start Romeo Doubs or Alvin Kamara in Week 7?
Updated Oct 20, 2:56 PM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start Romeo Doubs: 52 percent of the snaps and 13 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Alvin Kamara's 31 percent of the snaps and 23 percent of the carries. 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.
