Should I start Jacoby Brissett or Kyle Juszczyk in Week 7?
Updated Oct 23, 6:26 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 Kyle Juszczyk's 51 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the carries. 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 size324 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 Jacoby Brissett, and the board ranks him 110th overall on the rest of his evidence.
In 2QB drafts he goes at ADP 44.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Kyle Juszczyk, and the board ranks him 112th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
Jacoby Brissett's market-based projection is 15.3 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 13 market sources. That is the 37th highest figure of the 205 players with a market-based projection.
The market-based projection for Kyle Juszczyk is 6.0 PPR points a game off 3 markets across 13 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.
Kyle Juszczyk's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
