Should I start Josh Cameron or Blake Corum in Week 9?
Updated Nov 3, 2:21 PM ET. Week 10 answers post Tuesday.
Start Josh Cameron: 44 percent of the snaps and 7 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Blake Corum's 35 percent of the snaps and 45 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 size302 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 Josh Cameron, and the board ranks him 78th overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Blake Corum, and the board ranks him 79th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
Josh Cameron's market-based projection is 3.8 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 82nd highest figure of the 213 players with a market-based projection.
The market-based projection for Blake Corum is 4.0 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.
Blake Corum's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
This season through Week 8
Through Week 8, Josh Cameron has been on the field for 37 percent of JAX snaps, drawn 7 percent of the targets and had 6 percent of the red zone chances.
He has taken 2 of the offence's 48 third down targets, had 1 of its 16 chances inside the five and seen 3 of its 23 two minute targets.
His 13 targets have averaged 6.7 air yards.
In Week 5 against PHI he caught 3 of 6 targets for 43 yards and did not score.
In Week 6 against HOU he was not given the ball.
In Week 8 against IND he caught 0 of 1 target for 0 yards and did not score.
Through Week 8, Blake Corum has been on the field for 30 percent of LAR snaps, taken 37 percent of the carries, drawn 5 percent of the targets and had 15 percent of the red zone chances.
He has taken 0 of the offence's 66 third down targets, had 2 of its 21 chances inside the five and seen 0 of its 39 two minute targets.
His 15 targets have averaged 0.3 air yards.
In Week 6 against ARI he carried 9 times for 42 yards, caught 2 of 2 targets for 18 yards and scored 1 touchdown.
In Week 7 against LV he carried 17 times for 93 yards, caught 1 of 1 target for 8 yards and scored 1 touchdown.
In Week 8 against LAC he carried 11 times for 73 yards, caught 0 of 1 target for 0 yards and scored 1 touchdown.
Their 2025 seasons
Josh Cameron is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.
In 2025 Blake Corum played 17 games and scored 122.2 PPR points, 7.2 a game, finishing RB40.
He carried 145 times for 746 yards and 6 touchdowns, and caught 8 of 14 targets for 36 more yards.
That came to 8-9 carries a game at 5.1 yards a carry and 0-1 catches a game.
He was on the field for 29 percent of the snaps in the games he played.
Side by side
Josh Cameron is a wide receiver and Blake Corum a running back, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.
Byes and availability
Josh Cameron is off in Week 7 and Blake Corum in Week 11, so either can cover the other's bye.
What would change the answer
Blake Corum has only a partial projection, so the market half of this page is whole for only one of them.
