Side by side
Greg Dulcich is a tight end and MarShawn Lloyd a running back, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.
Byes and availability
Greg Dulcich is off in Week 6 and MarShawn Lloyd in Week 11, so either can cover the other's bye.
Greg Dulcich is listed as questionable on the injury report.
What would change the answer
2.6 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.
The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
