Should I start Odell Beckham or Jakobi Meyers in Week 7?

Updated Oct 20, 12:11 AM ET.

Start Jakobi Meyers: 80 percent of the snaps and 17 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Odell Beckham's 10 percent of the snaps and 1 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.
