Should I start Dallas Goedert or Jakobi Meyers in Week 6?

Both players' season market-based projection, their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, with the draft market's own figures wherever it still has them.

Updated Oct 16, 6:31 PM ET.

Dallas Goedert's market-based projection is 0.4 points a game ahead of Jakobi Meyers's this season, and that is the order this page leads on. Neither is in the consensus draft sample any more, so there is no current draft order to give between them: the market-based projection is the live read on these two.

Their 2025 seasons

In 2025 Dallas Goedert played 15 games and scored 185.1 PPR points, 12.3 a game, finishing TE7.

Jakobi Meyers was available for 1 game more.

Side by side

In 2025 Dallas Goedert scored 12.3 PPR points a game and Jakobi Meyers 11.0, 1.4 a game between them.

Dallas Goedert finished TE7 and Jakobi Meyers WR32, which are two different ladders.

Dallas Goedert is a tight end and Jakobi Meyers a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Dallas Goedert is off in Week 10 and Jakobi Meyers in Week 7, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

0.4 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when the consensus sample holds these two again it can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the sample rather than the market-based projection when it does.
