Jared Goff or Jordan Love: who should I start in Week 3?
Both players' season price from the sportsbooks, their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, with the draft market's own figures wherever it still has them.

Where the draft room stands

Drafters have formed no consensus on Jordan Love: he carries no ADP, and the board ranks him 101st overall on the rest of his evidence.

What the sportsbooks price
The books have Jared Goff at 16.3 PPR points a game off 4 markets across 17 books. That is 80 percent of what a quarterback's price needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
The player markets price Jordan Love at 16.2 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 18 books. That is the 31st highest figure of the 186 players the books price.
Jared Goff's price is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
