Should I start Tyler Higbee or George Holani in Week 7?

Where the draft room stands

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for Tyler Higbee is 1.8 PPR points a game off 1 market across 3 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a tight end's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

The market-based projection for George Holani is 1.5 PPR points a game off 1 market across 4 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.

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