Start Drew Lock: 97 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Rashid Shaheed's 41 percent of the snaps and 15 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.

Their Week 10 outlook

The gap

  • Board size306 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 Drew Lock, and the board ranks him 144th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Rashid Shaheed, and the board ranks him 145th overall on the rest of his evidence.

In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 50.

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for Drew Lock is 1.1 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 0 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

The market-based projection for Rashid Shaheed is 1.4 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.

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

Side by side

In 2025 Rashid Shaheed scored 8.7 PPR points a game and Drew Lock 0.0, 8.7 a game between them.

Drew Lock finished QB73 and Rashid Shaheed WR39, which are two different ladders.

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

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 11, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.

Drew Lock is listed as questionable on the injury report.

Rashid Shaheed is listed as out on the injury report.
