Should I start Kyle Williams or Ja'Kobi Lane in Week 10?

Updated Nov 10, 3:51 PM ET.

Start Kyle Williams: 68 percent of the snaps and 5 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Ja'Kobi Lane's 64 percent of the snaps and 8 percent of the targets. 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 Kyle Williams for Ja'Kobi Lane?

Yes, on the rest of the season. Ja'Kobi Lane projects 27 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (3.9 a game over 7 games), Kyle Williams 22 (3.2 a game over 7 games).
