- : Mike Evans: Questionable to Out (Achilles, Tendinitis) (Sleeper injury feed)
Start Jared Goff: 100 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Mike Evans's 54 percent of the snaps and 27 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 Mike Evans for Jared Goff?
Yes, on the rest of the season. Jared Goff projects 133 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (16.6 a game over 8 games), Mike Evans 30 (3.8 a game over 8 games). Mike Evans is listed out.

The gap
- Board size310 draftable players
Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.
Where the draft room stands
Live drafts hold no current pick on Jared Goff, and the board ranks him 65th overall on the rest of his evidence.
Live drafts hold no current pick on Mike Evans, and the board ranks him 66th overall on the rest of his evidence.
The market-based projections
Jared Goff's market-based projection is 16.6 PPR points a game, built from 5 markets across 14 market sources. That is the 17th highest figure of the 211 players with a market-based projection.
The market-based projection for Mike Evans is 4.2 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.
Mike Evans's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.
