Should I start Fernando Mendoza or Joe Fagnano in Week 10?
Updated Nov 10, 3:21 PM ET. Week 11 answers post Tuesday.
Start Joe Fagnano: 90 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 2 games, against Fernando Mendoza's 17 percent of the snaps and 0 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 market-based projections

Head to head
This season Joe Fagnano holds the bigger snap share, 90 percent against 17 percent.
Their target share this season is the same, 0 percent each.
Byes and availability
Both are off in Week 13, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.
What would change the answer
Joe Fagnano has no posted market, so one half of the evidence on this page exists for only one of them.
