Should I start Germie Bernard or Jerry Jeudy in Week 7?

Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on Germie Bernard, and the board ranks him 19th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Jerry Jeudy, and the board ranks him 156th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

Germie Bernard's market-based projection is 12.0 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 6 market sources. That is the 16th highest figure of the 160 players with a market-based projection.

The market-based projection for Jerry Jeudy is 1.0 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.

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

This season Germie Bernard holds the bigger target share, 15 percent against 11 percent.

Byes and availability

Germie Bernard is off in Week 9 and Jerry Jeudy in Week 11, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer
