Should I start Ashton Dulin or Cyrus Allen in Week 7?

Updated Oct 20, 3:26 PM ET.

Start Ashton Dulin: 28 percent of the snaps and 12 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Cyrus Allen's 9 percent of the snaps and 4 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.
