Should I start Brian Robinson or Pierre Strong in Week 6?

Both players' season market-based projection, their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, with the draft market's own figures wherever it still has them.

Updated Oct 18, 1:36 PM ET.

Start Pierre Strong: 41 percent of the snaps and 21 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Brian Robinson's 30 percent of the snaps and 32 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 market-based projections

The market-based projection for Brian Robinson is 8.4 PPR points a game off 2 markets across 14 market sources. That is 70 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
