Their 2025 seasons

In 2025 Jayden Daniels played 7 games and scored 117.3 PPR points, 16.8 a game, finishing QB34.

He threw for 1262 yards on 188 attempts with 8 touchdowns and 3 interceptions, and ran for 278 yards and 2 touchdowns.

That came to 26.9 attempts a game at 6.7 yards an attempt.

He was on the field for 91 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

In 2025 Bhayshul Tuten played 15 games and scored 88.6 PPR points, 5.9 a game, finishing RB53.

He carried 83 times for 307 yards and 5 touchdowns, and caught 10 of 14 targets for 79 more yards.

He was on the field for 21 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Bhayshul Tuten was available for 8 games more.

Side by side

In 2025 Jayden Daniels scored 16.8 PPR points a game and Bhayshul Tuten 5.9, 10.8 a game between them.

Jayden Daniels finished QB34 and Bhayshul Tuten RB53, which are two different ladders.

Jayden Daniels is a quarterback and Bhayshul Tuten a running back, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 7, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.

What would change the answer

7.2 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
