Should I start Jaydon Blue or Seth McGowan in Week 8?

Updated Nov 3, 3:06 AM ET.

Start Seth McGowan: he has been on the field this season, 27 percent of the snaps, and Jaydon Blue has no snap on record yet. 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.

Where the draft room stands

Our board does not carry Jaydon Blue at all right now: live drafts have stopped taking him and there is no player market on him this week, so he has no rank, no tier and no ADP here.
