For Week 7 the call starts Jahan Dotson over Tez Johnson, 6.8 to 6.6 projected PPR points.

What would change the answer
0.2 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.
