Should I start Jacoby Brissett or Pierre Strong in Week 6?

Both players' season market-based projection, their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, with the draft market's own figures wherever it still has them.

Updated Oct 16, 3:31 PM ET.

Jacoby Brissett's market-based projection is 7.9 points a game ahead of Pierre Strong's this season, and that is the order this page leads on. Neither is in the consensus draft sample any more, so there is no current draft order to give between them: the market-based projection is the live read on these two.

Side by side

Jacoby Brissett is a quarterback and Pierre Strong a running back, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Jacoby Brissett is off in Week 14. No bye is listed for Pierre Strong.

What would change the answer

7.9 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 the consensus sample holds these two again it can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the sample rather than the market-based projection when it does.
