Should I start Travis Kelce or Cam Skattebo 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 16, 9:36 PM ET.

Travis Kelce's market-based projection is 0.3 points a game ahead of Cam Skattebo's this season, and that is the order this page leads on. Neither is in the consensus draft sample any more, so there is no current draft order to give between them: the market-based projection is the live read on these two.

Travis Kelce was available for 9 games more.

Side by side

In 2025 Cam Skattebo scored 16.0 PPR points a game and Travis Kelce 11.4, 4.6 a game between them.

Travis Kelce finished TE3 and Cam Skattebo RB37, which are two different ladders.

Travis Kelce is a tight end 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

Travis Kelce is off in Week 5 and Cam Skattebo in Week 8, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

0.3 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 the consensus sample holds these two again it can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the sample rather than the market-based projection when it does.
