Should I start Audric Estime or Chimere Dike in Week 10?

Updated Nov 11, 3:26 AM ET.

Start Chimere Dike: 45 percent of the snaps and 7 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Audric Estime's 26 percent of the snaps and 40 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.

The gap

  • Board size313 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 Audric Estime, and the board ranks him 132nd overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Chimere Dike, and the board ranks him 177th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for Audric Estime is 3.4 PPR points a game off 1 market across 6 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

The market-based projection for Chimere Dike is 0.5 PPR points a game off 1 market across 5 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.

Audric Estime's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

Audric Estime finished RB71 and Chimere Dike WR50, which are two different ladders.

Audric Estime is a running back and Chimere Dike a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability
