Should I start Amon-Ra St. Brown or Theo Wease in Week 6?
Updated Oct 19, 5:26 PM ET. Week 7 answers post Tuesday.
Start Amon-Ra St. Brown: 86 percent of the snaps and 27 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Theo Wease's 64 percent of the snaps and 5 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.
