Should I start Pat Freiermuth or Devin Singletary in Week 7?

Updated Oct 22, 3:26 AM ET.

Start Pat Freiermuth: 72 percent of the snaps and 13 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Devin Singletary's 35 percent of the snaps and 18 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 market-based projections

Pat Freiermuth's market-based projection is 8.2 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 102nd highest figure of the 215 players with a market-based projection.

The market-based projection for Devin Singletary is 5.2 PPR points a game off 3 markets across 11 market sources. That is 60 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Devin Singletary's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
