Not on these numbers alone. Jared Goff projects 132 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (16.5 a game over 8 games) and Bryce Young 134 (16.8 a game over 8 games), too close to separate, so the roster spot decides it. For Week 10 the call starts Jared Goff over Bryce Young.

The gap
- Board size307 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 Jared Goff, and the board ranks him 17th overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Bryce Young, and the board ranks him 201st overall on the rest of his evidence.
In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 40.
The market-based projections
Jared Goff's market-based projection is 16.6 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 14 market sources. That is the 13th highest figure of the 209 players with a market-based projection.
The market-based projection for Bryce Young is 1.0 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 0 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Bryce Young's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
