Should I start Chris Rodriguez Jr. or Jalen Coker in Week 10?
Updated Nov 10, 3:16 PM ET. Week 11 answers post Tuesday.
Start Jalen Coker: 79 percent of the snaps and 14 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Chris Rodriguez Jr.'s 34 percent of the snaps and 26 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 size307 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 Chris Rodriguez Jr., and the board ranks him 87th overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Jalen Coker, and the board ranks him 96th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market has Chris Rodriguez Jr. at 3.4 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.
The market-based projection for Jalen Coker is 2.0 PPR points a game off 1 market across 8 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Chris Rodriguez Jr.'s projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
