Should I start Rachaad White or Jadarian Price in Week 9?

Updated Nov 3, 3:21 PM ET.

Start Rachaad White: 59 percent of the snaps and 35 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Jadarian Price's 36 percent of the snaps and 35 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.

Should I drop Rachaad White for Jadarian Price?

Yes, on the rest of the season. Jadarian Price projects 50 market-implied PPR points from Week 9 through Week 17 (6.3 a game over 8 games), Rachaad White 34 (3.8 a game over 9 games).
