Should I start Kendrick Bourne or Joe Fagnano in Week 9?

Updated Nov 3, 8:11 AM ET.

Latest

  • : Kendrick Bourne: Questionable to Out (Ankle, Sprain) (Sleeper injury feed)
  • : Kendrick Bourne: Listed Questionable (Undisclosed) (Sleeper injury feed)

Start Kendrick Bourne: he has been on the field this season, 54 percent of the snaps, and Joe Fagnano 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.

The gap

  • Board size300 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 Kendrick Bourne, and the board ranks him 39th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Joe Fagnano, and the board ranks him 41st overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

No season market is posted for Kendrick Bourne, so the only market valuing him on this page is the draft room.

The market-based projection for Joe Fagnano is 10.9 PPR points a game off 4 markets across 9 market sources. That is 80 percent of what a quarterback's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

This season through Week 8

Through Week 8, Kendrick Bourne has been on the field for 58 percent of ARI snaps, drawn 12 percent of the targets and had 6 percent of the red zone chances.

He has taken 16 of the offence's 88 third down targets, had 1 of its 29 chances inside the five and seen 7 of its 57 two minute targets.

His 38 targets have averaged 5.7 air yards.

In Week 6 against LAR he caught 5 of 8 targets for 47 yards and did not score.

In Week 7 against DEN he caught 3 of 6 targets for 9 yards and did not score.

In Week 8 against DAL he caught 1 of 2 targets for 29 yards and did not score.

Through Week 8, Joe Fagnano has dropped back 25 times and thrown 4.3 air yards an attempt.

He has been sacked or hit on 9 of 25 dropbacks and scrambled 1 time.

In Week 8 against BUF he completed 10 of 21 passes for 91 yards, threw 0 touchdowns and 1 interception and ran 2 times for 4 yards.

Their 2025 seasons

In 2025 Kendrick Bourne played 16 games and scored 92.1 PPR points, 5.8 a game, finishing WR68.

He caught 37 of 53 targets for 551 yards and 0 touchdowns, with 2 red zone targets.

That came to 3.3 targets a game, a 70 percent catch rate and 14.9 yards a catch.

He was on the field for 57 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Joe Fagnano is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

Side by side

Kendrick Bourne is a wide receiver and Joe Fagnano a quarterback, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.
