Start Christian McCaffrey: 68 percent of the snaps and 45 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Devin Singletary's 53 percent of the snaps and 36 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.

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

In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 7.

The market-based projections

Devin Singletary's market-based projection is 7.0 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 14 market sources. That is the 29th highest figure of the 208 players with a market-based projection.

Christian McCaffrey's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
