Should I start Emanuel Wilson or Corey Kiner in Week 7?
Updated Oct 21, 9:26 PM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start Emanuel Wilson: 48 percent of the snaps and 66 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Corey Kiner's 13 percent of the snaps and 18 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.
Should I drop Corey Kiner for Emanuel Wilson?
Yes, on the rest of the season. Emanuel Wilson projects 127 market-implied PPR points from Week 7 through Week 17 (12.7 a game over 10 games), Corey Kiner 24 (2.4 a game over 10 games).
