Should I start Jayden Higgins or DJ Moore in Week 7?
Updated Oct 20, 12:36 PM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start DJ Moore: he has been on the field this season, 44 percent of the snaps, and Jayden Higgins has no snap on record yet. 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.
