Should I start Josh Allen or Dohnte Meyers in Week 10?

Updated Nov 10, 11:21 AM ET.

Start Josh Allen: 98 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Dohnte Meyers's 48 percent of the snaps and 8 percent of the targets. 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

  • Board size307 draftable players

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 Josh Allen, and the board ranks him 32nd overall on the rest of his evidence.

In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 2.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Dohnte Meyers, and the board ranks him 34th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for Josh Allen is 5.9 PPR points a game off 1 market across 4 market sources. That is 0 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Dohnte Meyers's market-based projection is 5.7 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 6 market sources. That is the 37th highest figure of the 208 players with a market-based projection.

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

This season through Week 9

Through Week 9, Josh Allen has been on the field for 99 percent of BUF snaps, dropped back 273 times and thrown 8.9 air yards an attempt.

He has been sacked or hit on 42 of 273 dropbacks and scrambled 20 times.

In Week 6 against LV he completed 23 of 33 passes for 255 yards, threw 2 touchdowns and 0 interceptions and ran 2 times for 4 yards.

In Week 8 against BAL he completed 21 of 34 passes for 289 yards, threw 2 touchdowns and 1 interception and ran 7 times for 30 yards.

In Week 9 against MIN he completed 21 of 31 passes for 234 yards, threw 1 touchdown and 1 interception and ran 5 times for 16 yards.

Through Week 9, Dohnte Meyers has been on the field for 45 percent of CIN snaps, drawn 9 percent of the targets and had 3 percent of the red zone chances.

He has taken 6 of the offence's 68 third down targets, had 1 of its 20 chances inside the five and seen 7 of its 47 two minute targets.

His 26 targets have averaged 5.8 air yards.

In Week 7 against BAL he caught 0 of 2 targets for 0 yards and did not score.

In Week 8 against TEN he caught 3 of 3 targets for 34 yards and did not score.

Their 2025 seasons

In 2025 Josh Allen played 17 games and scored 374.6 PPR points, 22.0 a game, finishing QB1.

He threw for 3668 yards on 460 attempts with 25 touchdowns and 10 interceptions, and ran for 579 yards and 14 touchdowns.

That came to 27.1 attempts a game at 8.0 yards an attempt.

He was on the field for 98 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Dohnte Meyers is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

Side by side

Josh Allen is a quarterback and Dohnte Meyers a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Josh Allen is off in Week 7. No bye is listed for Dohnte Meyers.

What would change the answer

Josh Allen has only a partial projection, so the market half of this page is whole for only one of them.
