Should I start Dak Prescott or Michael Wilson in Week 7?

Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on Dak Prescott, and the board ranks him 58th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Michael Wilson, and the board ranks him 60th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for Dak Prescott is 19.2 PPR points a game off 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is 70 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Michael Wilson's market-based projection is 11.2 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 9 market sources. That is the 72nd highest figure of the 208 players with a market-based projection.

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

Side by side

In 2025 Dak Prescott scored 19.0 PPR points a game and Michael Wilson 13.0, 6.1 a game between them.

Dak Prescott finished QB6 and Michael Wilson WR10, which are two different ladders.

Dak Prescott is a quarterback and Michael Wilson a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 14, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.

What would change the answer

Dak Prescott has only a partial projection, so the market half of this page is whole for only one of them.
