Should I start Bo Nix or Breece Hall in Week 7?

Updated Oct 21, 6:01 PM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.

Start Bo Nix: 100 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Breece Hall's 57 percent of the snaps and 62 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.

Should I drop Breece Hall for Bo Nix?

Yes, on the rest of the season. Bo Nix projects 162 market-implied PPR points from Week 7 through Week 17 (16.2 a game over 10 games), Breece Hall 45 (4.5 a game over 10 games). Breece Hall is listed questionable.

The market-based projections
