Should I start Tim Patrick or Cyrus Allen in Week 7?
Updated Oct 20, 6:11 AM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start Tim Patrick: 93 percent of the snaps and 10 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Cyrus Allen's 5 percent of the snaps and 1 percent of the targets. 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 size297 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 Tim Patrick, and the board ranks him 164th overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Cyrus Allen, and the board ranks him 195th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market-based projection for Tim Patrick is 0.7 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
No season market is posted for Cyrus Allen, so the only market valuing him on this page is the draft room.
This season through Week 6
Through Week 6, Tim Patrick has been on the field for 93 percent of NYJ snaps, drawn 10 percent of the targets and had 0 percent of the red zone chances.
He has taken 0 of the offence's 14 third down targets and seen 3 of its 10 two minute targets.
His 6 targets have averaged 7.7 air yards.
In Week 5 against CLE he caught 2 of 3 targets for 26 yards and did not score.

Their 2025 seasons

He caught 15 of 24 targets for 187 yards and 3 touchdowns, with 9 red zone targets.
That came to 1-2 targets a game, a 63 percent catch rate and 13 yards a catch.
He was on the field for 31 percent of the snaps in the games he played.
Cyrus Allen is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.
