Their 2025 seasons

He caught 27 of 36 targets for 307 yards and 1 touchdown, with 6 red zone targets.

That came to 2.6 targets a game, a 75 percent catch rate and 11.4 yards a catch.

Isaiah Likely was available for 7 games more.

Side by side

In 2025 Kendre Miller scored 4.8 PPR points a game and Isaiah Likely 4.4, 0.3 a game between them.

Isaiah Likely finished TE45 and Kendre Miller RB79, which are two different ladders.

Isaiah Likely is a tight end and Kendre Miller a running back, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 8, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.

What would change the answer

3.8 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.
