Should I start Michael Pittman Jr. or Jameis Winston in Week 6?
Both players' season market-based projection, their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, with the draft market's own figures wherever it still has them.
Start Jameis Winston: 98 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Michael Pittman Jr.'s 78 percent of the snaps and 11 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.
