Should I start RJ Harvey or George Holani in Week 8?
Updated Oct 27, 7:11 PM ET. Week 9 answers post Tuesday.
Start George Holani: 46 percent of the snaps and 15 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against RJ Harvey's 34 percent of the snaps and 15 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 RJ Harvey?
Yes, on the rest of the season. RJ Harvey projects 82 market-implied PPR points from Week 8 through Week 17 (9.1 a game over 9 games), George Holani 32 (3.5 a game over 9 games).
