Should I start Isaiah Likely or Cam Skattebo in Week 7?

Where the draft room stands

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for Isaiah Likely is 2.6 PPR points a game off 1 market across 7 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a tight end's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

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.

Isaiah Likely's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
