Should I start Kendre Miller or Josh Cameron in Week 9?

Updated Nov 4, 2:11 AM ET.

Start Josh Cameron: 44 percent of the snaps and 7 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Kendre Miller's 39 percent of the snaps and 54 percent of the carries. 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 size306 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 Kendre Miller, and the board ranks him 116th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Josh Cameron, and the board ranks him 117th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

The market-based projection for Kendre Miller is 3.2 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Josh Cameron's market-based projection is 3.4 PPR points a game, built from 3 markets across 14 market sources. That is the 124th highest figure of the 219 players with a market-based projection.

Kendre Miller's projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

He has taken 0 of the offence's 58 third down targets, had 5 of its 21 chances inside the five and seen 0 of its 35 two minute targets.

His 13 targets have come 1.4 yards behind the line of scrimmage on average.

Their 2025 seasons

In 2025 Kendre Miller played 7 games and scored 33.3 PPR points, 4.8 a game, finishing RB79.

He carried 47 times for 193 yards and 1 touchdown, and caught 5 of 5 targets for 30 more yards.

That came to 6.7 carries a game at 4.1 yards a carry and 0.7 catches a game.

He was on the field for 24 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Josh Cameron is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

Side by side

Kendre Miller is a running back and Josh Cameron a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Kendre Miller is off in Week 8 and Josh Cameron in Week 7, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

Kendre Miller has only a partial projection, so the market half of this page is whole for only one of them.
