Should I start Cam Skattebo or Efton Chism in Week 7?
Updated Oct 21, 8:02 AM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start Efton Chism: 61 percent of the snaps and 11 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Cam Skattebo's 45 percent of the snaps and 42 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 gap
- Board size303 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 Cam Skattebo, and the board ranks him 112th overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Efton Chism, and the board ranks him 113th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market-based projection for Cam Skattebo is 2.4 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Efton Chism's market-based projection is 4.9 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 103rd highest figure of the 199 players with a market-based projection.
Cam Skattebo's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
