The market-based projections

Side by side

In 2025 Kyren Williams scored 15.5 PPR points a game and Jahan Dotson 3.0, 12.5 a game between them.

Jahan Dotson finished WR109 and Kyren Williams RB9, which are two different ladders.

Jahan Dotson is a wide receiver and Kyren Williams 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 11, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.
