Should I start Jacoby Brissett or Harold Fannin in Week 7?

Updated Oct 21, 10:36 AM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.

Start Jacoby Brissett: 100 percent of the snaps and 1 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Harold Fannin's 91 percent of the snaps and 13 percent of the targets. 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 Harold Fannin for Jacoby Brissett?

Yes, on the rest of the season. Jacoby Brissett projects 159 market-implied PPR points from Week 7 through Week 17 (15.9 a game over 10 games), Harold Fannin 96 (9.6 a game over 10 games).
