Their 2025 seasons

Denzel Boston is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

In 2025 Cam Skattebo played 8 games and scored 127.7 PPR points, 16.0 a game, finishing RB37.

He carried 101 times for 410 yards and 5 touchdowns, and caught 24 of 32 targets for 207 more yards.

That came to 12.6 carries a game at 4.1 yards a carry and 3.0 catches a game.

He was on the field for 54 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Side by side

Denzel Boston is a wide receiver and Cam Skattebo a running back, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Denzel Boston is off in Week 11 and Cam Skattebo in Week 8, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

0.9 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 live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
