Side by side

In 2025 Brenton Strange scored 9.8 PPR points a game and Tre Tucker 9.5, 0.3 a game between them.

Tre Tucker finished WR38 and Brenton Strange TE23, which are two different ladders.

Tre Tucker is a wide receiver and Brenton Strange a tight end, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Tre Tucker is off in Week 13 and Brenton Strange in Week 7, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

0.3 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 the consensus sample holds these two again it can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the sample rather than the market-based projection when it does.
