Should I start Dalton Kincaid or Charlie Kolar in Week 7?

Updated Oct 20, 7:01 PM ET.

Dalton Kincaid and Charlie Kolar are too close to call on usage: 68 percent of the snaps and 15 percent of the targets against 68 percent of the snaps and 16 percent of the targets over their last 3 games. 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.
