Side by side

Drew Lock finished QB73 and Marvin Harrison Jr. WR49, which are two different ladders.

Drew Lock is a quarterback and Marvin Harrison Jr. a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Drew Lock is off in Week 11 and Marvin Harrison Jr. in Week 8, so either can cover the other's bye.

Drew Lock is listed as questionable on the injury report.

What would change the answer

8.6 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
