Should I start Pierre Strong Jr. or Cam Ward in Week 10?

Updated Nov 10, 10:11 AM ET.

Start Cam Ward: 100 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Pierre Strong Jr.'s 23 percent of the snaps and 12 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 size306 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 Pierre Strong Jr., and the board ranks him 118th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Cam Ward, and the board ranks him 120th overall on the rest of his evidence.

In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 43.

The market-based projections

The market has Pierre Strong Jr. at 3.1 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.

The market-based projection for Cam Ward is 1.3 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.

Pierre Strong Jr.'s projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

Side by side

Pierre Strong Jr. is a running back and Cam Ward a quarterback, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Pierre Strong Jr. is off in Week 11 and Cam Ward in Week 9, so either can cover the other's bye.
