Should I start Chris Rodriguez Jr. or George Holani in Week 8?
Updated Oct 27, 2:06 PM ET. Week 9 answers post Tuesday.
Start George Holani: 46 percent of the snaps and 15 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Chris Rodriguez Jr.'s 22 percent of the snaps and 24 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.
