Should I start Kyle Juszczyk or Christian Kirk in Week 7?
Updated Oct 24, 9:21 AM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start Kyle Juszczyk: he has been on the field this season, 51 percent of the snaps, and Christian Kirk has no snap on record yet. 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.

Their Week 7 outlook
The gap
- Board size330 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 Kyle Juszczyk, and the board ranks him 130th overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Christian Kirk, and the board ranks him 131st overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market-based projection for Kyle Juszczyk is 6.1 PPR points a game off 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is 60 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Christian Kirk's market-based projection is 6.8 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 11 market sources. That is the 116th highest figure of the 206 players with a market-based projection.
Kyle Juszczyk's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
This season through Week 6
Through Week 6, Kyle Juszczyk has been on the field for 49 percent of SF snaps, taken 0 percent of the carries, drawn 6 percent of the targets and had 3 percent of the red zone chances.
He has taken 1 of the offence's 36 third down targets, had 0 of its 18 chances inside the five and seen 1 of its 22 two minute targets.

Their 2025 seasons

Side by side
Kyle Juszczyk is a running back and Christian Kirk a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.
Byes and availability
Christian Kirk is listed as ir on the injury report.
What would change the answer
Kyle Juszczyk has only a partial projection, so the market half of this page is whole for only one of them.
