- : Mike Evans: Questionable to Out (Achilles, Tendinitis) (Sleeper injury feed)
Start Josh Allen: 98 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 Josh Allen?
Yes, on the rest of the season. Josh Allen projects 182 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (22.8 a game over 8 games), Mike Evans 30 (3.8 a game over 8 games). Mike Evans is listed out.

The market-based projections
