Start Denzel Boston: 88 percent of the snaps and 25 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against MarShawn Lloyd's 31 percent of the snaps and 25 percent of the carries. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.

The gap

Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.
Where the draft room stands
Live drafts hold no current pick on MarShawn Lloyd, and the board ranks him 113th overall on the rest of his evidence.
In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 48.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Denzel Boston, and the board ranks him 114th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
The market-based projection for MarShawn Lloyd is 4.2 PPR points a game off 2 markets across 5 market sources. That is 70 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
The market-based projection for Denzel Boston is 1.8 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
MarShawn Lloyd's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
