Should I start George Holani or Theo Wease Jr. in Week 8?

Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on George Holani, and the board ranks him 159th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Theo Wease Jr., and the board ranks him 178th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for George Holani is 1.6 PPR points a game off 1 market across 3 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.

The market has Theo Wease Jr. at 0.5 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.

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