Daniel Jones or Jameis Winston: who should I start in Week 3?
Both players' season price from the sportsbooks, their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, with the draft market's own figures wherever it still has them.

Neither is in the consensus draft sample any more, and the books have not posted a whole price on Jameis Winston, so there is no current market order to give between these two. What follows is what each of them has already done.

Where the draft room stands
Drafters have formed no consensus on Daniel Jones: he carries no ADP, and the board ranks him 130th overall on the rest of his evidence.
In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 76.
Our board does not carry Jameis Winston 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.
What the sportsbooks price
The player markets price Daniel Jones at 15.1 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 17 books. That is the 46th highest figure of the 175 players the books price.
