Should I start Pierre Strong Jr. or George Holani in Week 7?

Updated Oct 22, 12:36 AM ET.

Start Pierre Strong Jr.: 49 percent of the snaps and 33 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against George Holani's 47 percent of the snaps and 19 percent of the carries. 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.

Should I drop George Holani for Pierre Strong Jr.?

Yes, on the rest of the season. Pierre Strong Jr. projects 63 market-implied PPR points from Week 7 through Week 17 (6.3 a game over 10 games), George Holani 54 (5.4 a game over 10 games).

The gap

  • Board size316 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 George Holani, and the board ranks him 170th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

Pierre Strong Jr.'s market-based projection is 4.9 PPR points a game, built from 4 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 130th highest figure of the 215 players with a market-based projection.

The market-based projection for George Holani is 1.1 PPR points a game off 1 market across 12 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

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