Should I start Jauan Jennings or Tank Dell in Week 9?

Updated Nov 4, 6:46 AM ET.

Start Jauan Jennings: 61 percent of the snaps and 7 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Tank Dell's 23 percent of the snaps and 4 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 Jauan Jennings for Tank Dell?

Not on these numbers alone. Jauan Jennings projects 11 market-implied PPR points from Week 9 through Week 17 (1.2 a game over 9 games) and Tank Dell 13 (1.4 a game over 9 games), too close to separate, so the roster spot decides it.
