Travis Kelce or Dalton Schultz: who should I start in Week 3?

Where the draft room stands

In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 155.

Our board does not carry Dalton Schultz at all right now: the consensus draft sample has dropped him and the sportsbooks have no priced market on him this week, so he has no rank, no tier and no ADP here.
