Should I start Keon Coleman or Blake Corum in Week 8?

Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on Keon Coleman, and the board ranks him 95th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Blake Corum, and the board ranks him 96th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for Keon Coleman is 2.1 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

The market-based projection for Blake Corum is 3.2 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.

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