Should I start Julius Chestnut or Isaiah Davis in Week 7?

Updated Oct 22, 12:16 AM ET.

Start Isaiah Davis: he has been on the field this season, 12 percent of the snaps, and Julius Chestnut has no snap on record yet. 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.

The gap

  • Board size315 draftable players

Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.

Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on Julius Chestnut, and the board ranks him 176th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Our board does not carry Isaiah Davis at all right now: live drafts have stopped taking him and there is no player market on him this week, so he has no rank, no tier and no ADP here.

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for Julius Chestnut is 0.7 PPR points a game off 3 markets across 11 market sources. That is 60 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

No season market is posted for Isaiah Davis, so the only market valuing him on this page is the draft room.
