Should I start Hunter Henry or Woody Marks in Week 7?

Updated Oct 21, 12:11 PM ET.

Start Woody Marks: 70 percent of the snaps and 52 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Hunter Henry's 68 percent of the snaps and 14 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 Woody Marks for Hunter Henry?

Yes, on the rest of the season. Hunter Henry projects 96 market-implied PPR points from Week 7 through Week 17 (9.6 a game over 10 games), Woody Marks 76 (7.6 a game over 10 games).

Live drafts hold no current pick on Woody Marks, and the board ranks him 83rd overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

Hunter Henry's market-based projection is 8.8 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 79th highest figure of the 204 players with a market-based projection.

The market-based projection for Woody Marks is 4.5 PPR points a game off 1 market across 9 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.

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