Side by side

Dalton Kincaid finished TE20 and Jakobi Meyers WR32, which are two different ladders.

Dalton Kincaid 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

Both are off in Week 7, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.

What would change the answer

1.3 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 price, and this page will follow the sample rather than the market price when it does.
